Chapter 530 Jake Fulton


    At the mention of this, there was a vicious glint in Xander''s eyes. It was fleeting yet intense.


    "Hmm, you don''t need to worry about it."


    Grace caught it and raised her hand to straighten his cor.


    "Xander, you''ve always been gentle. Your hands shouldn''t be tainted with blood. I can help you


    when necessary. I''m not afraid of anything."


    Grace''s eyes were more determined than ever. She looked almost as intimidating as Xander.


    Over the years, she had been through a lot. She was no longer the na?ve young girl she once was.


    She knew that in this circle, there was never such a thing as peace.


    Xander caught her hand and said, "Through thick and thin?"


    "Yes, I remember."


    She also knew why he had said that at the time.


    The vicious look in his eyes faded. He held her hand and caressed it in his palm.


    "No, Gracie, you don''t have to stoop so low for me."


    …


    A few hours earlier, at Fulton Group.


    Xander had taken over thepany at the age of 18. He was well-known as an authoritarian in the


    workce.


    He had returned from overseas without notifying anyone and made a surprise visit to the


    headquarters.


    Everyone was panicking, barely holding onto their documents as they trembled. "Mr. Fulton."


    Xander wore a white shirt and ck pants. He looked cold and showed no emotion as he entered


    the elevator. Behind him, his secretary at thepany''s headquarters, Hazel Yale, appeared.


    "Jake secured the city''s subway project, and with two years of achievementsbined, the board is


    beginning to trust him more."


    Xander stared at the numbers on the elevator and asked, "Where is he?"


    "He''s …"


    The elevator reached the top floor and opened. The secretariat staff saw him and immediately


    moved to make a call.


    Hazel stepped forward to stop them. "Do you know who this is?"


    No one dared move.


    Xander pushed the door to the executive office open and stood at the entrance.


    The atmosphere in the room was very ambiguous. A handsome but cunning man sat in the main


    seat. A half-undressed woman was sitting on hisp, hugging him in fright at the moment.


    "Jake!"


    Jake''s smile froze on his face. He patted the woman''s back. "It''s my brother. What are you afraid


    of?"


    Xander stepped forward, found a remote on the messy desk, and pressed it. The blinds opened and


    sunlight poured in.


    "You''re having fun, Jake. Bringing women into my office."


    Jake''s smile faded, and he urged, "Can''t you see my brother isn''t happy? Get off now."


    The woman ran out, clutching her clothes.


    "Hazel, handle it." Xander didn''t even nce her way.


    Hazel understood. She grabbed the woman''s slender wrist, stopping her.


    Jake didn''t look at her either. He just stared at Xander and yelled, "Stop! You dare toy a hand on


    my woman? You really don''t take me seriously."


    "Jake, this woman has corrupted your mind and the reputation of Fulton Group. I''ll clear it up for


    you."


    "Do you even know what reputation Fulton Group holds?" Jake chuckled, unable to hold back a


    laugh.


    The mole at the corner of his eye lifted as heughed, making him look more sinister.


    Xander wasn''t angered by hisughter. Instead, he walked to the window, blocking most of the


    sunlight.


    "I don''t understand as much as you. But I know one thing. If I had wanted to understand any part of


    this, you wouldn''t even be standing here."


    Jake stiffened. "Xander, it''s too early to say that."


    "Hazel." Xander spoke again.


    Hazel led the woman out of the office, and thetter''s pleas for help echoed through the entire floor.


    "Let me go, Ms. Yale! I don''t want to die!"


    "Save me, Jake Fulton!"
