Chapter 421 A Viin''s Sess


    "I''ll just roll with the punches."


    Grace had already formed a n in her mind. Whatever it was that Jessica intended to do, she


    would handle it with caution.


    At 9:00 am, Grace walked into Amirate Corporation in her high heels. She looked exceptionally


    capable in her professional attire.


    As soon as she showed up, Luke, who had been waiting for her, quickly approached her. "Ms.


    Lewis, you''re back."


    Grace nodded slightly and then entered the elevator. Luke followed closely, reporting Grace''s


    schedule for the day.


    "At 10:00 am, you have a video conference. At 11:00 am, you have a meeting with Mr. Barnes from


    Barnes Group in the conference room on the 22nd floor."


    As the elevator slowly ascended, it finally stopped at the top floor. Grace listened to Luke''s updates


    and gave a light acknowledgment. "Okay."


    Then, she walked out of the elevator.


    Unexpectedly, Samuel approached her with a smile.


    "Ms. Lewis, it''s been a long time! You finally came to thepany. I was worried that something


    had happened to your family. I haven''t seen you for a whole week."


    Grace stopped in her tracks. She slowly replied, "I appreciate your concern, Director Walker. I was


    just dealing with some personal matters."


    Samuel nodded understandingly and asked, "Have you resolved your personal matters? Do you


    need my help? Don''t hesitate to ask if you need anything."


    He yed the role of a concerned elder perfectly, pretending as if he cared about Grace.


    "Oh, Ms. Lewis, I''m not sure if Mr. Zier has already told you this. There was a little problem with


    the Dunhill project a few days ago."


    With a look of regret, Samuel said, "I heard that one of the mines copsed. Although there were no


    casualties, the losses were not small, especially in terms of thepany''s profits. It''s expected to


    take a big hit."


    Grace''s expression darkened upon hearing this. She looked at Luke. "Luke, is that true?"


    The situation wasplicated. Since Samuel was there, Luke didn''t exin much. He only said,


    "Ms. Lewis, I''ll report the details to youter."


    However, Samuel smiled and said, "Mr. Zier has been busy these past few days. I guess he


    forgot to report to you. But it''s not toote to report to you now.

    "But Ms. Lewis, It''s been half a year since our bet, and there has been no progress or improvement


    in the second half of the year''s performance. And now there''s a problem with the Dunhill project.


    Don''t you think this is quite difficult?"


    Samuel''s words carried a hint of smugness, as if he was looking forward to a good show.


    "Ms. Lewis, you''re still too young. Youck experience. In the business world, many things aren''t as


    simple as you think.


    "I don''t think we should make things too ugly with our bet. Why not step down early, go home, and


    be a good little heiress? There''s no need to expose yourself in the ruthless business world where


    people eat each other up."


    Grace listened calmly and responded, "Director Walker, there''s still time. Why are you so anxious?"


    Samuel smiled awkwardly and exined, "Don''t get me wrong, Ms. Lewis. I''m not anxious. I''m just


    being considerate.


    "In the end, you''re still too young. If you really lose, you''ll be embarrassed. So let''s not make it too


    ugly between us. What do you say?"
