Chapter 628 A Hundred of My Stores


    The sunlight was perfect, shrouding the two of them in a halo of light. They were like a picturesque


    scene by the roadside.


    Xander loosely wrapped his hands around her waist. "Let''s not worry about the bet for now. We''ll


    see."


    Benjamin''s car happened to pass by at this moment, and he saw this scene. His expression turned


    ugly as he gritted his teeth.


    Larry was very concerned. "Mr. Hawkins..."


    "I understand why Alexander gave up."


    Larry waited for the next sentence.


    "At this point, even if it''s not me, it won''t be him either."


    Grace had long since found the right guy, a man who had the ability to protect her.


    Benjamin rubbed his forehead, never having felt so defeated in his entire life.


    In the private room, Shawn said, "I gave up everything, but that doesn''t mean that I won''t collect


    some debts from you."


    "What?"


    "You took my ce and married Grace, but you didn''t treat her well, making her suffer. I''ll remember


    this. One day, I''ll make you pay."


    Benjamin couldn''t retort because it was the truth.


    "Arrange people to get Jessica out of here tomorrow."


    Larry was surprised. "Aren''t we supposed to keep her here? Our people may not have this level of


    expertise."


    "Arrange a dinner tonight. I want to meet someone higher up. It should be possible to make


    preparations and give her a new identity."


    In the car, the driver raised the partition, isting the sound from the back seat.


    "You''re leaving tonight? Why so sudden? You said three dayster." Shocked, Grace sat in the


    corner, creating distance from Xander.


    "Something happened at Fulton Group. I have to go back."


    "Is it because of Jake?"


    Xander rubbed the cigarette box in his hand, enduring the urge to smoke. "More or less."


    Grace''s chest heaved. Although reluctant, business came first. She could only try to understand.


    "Help me say hi to Aunt Hestia and Uncle Raymond. Take care of them."


    At this moment, she looked so pitiful, with her face crinkled. Xander endured augh, lifting her


    chin. "What about me?"


    "Just stay alive."


    Xander burst intoughter, scolding her for being heartless.


    At 8:00 pm, Grace sent him off at the airport. Before leaving, he held her hand tightly.


    He didn''t say anything, but it felt like he had said so much.


    Peter was indeed left behind. "Ms. Lewis, are you going back to Summitview Manor?"


    With Xander gone, Grace wasn''t particrly interested in that ce. She gave an address to find


    Emily.


    "This ne is with you? When did you get it?"


    Surprised, Emily held the ruby and examined it under the light.


    "He gave it to me. How much do you think it''s worth?"


    Emily gave a cool smirk. After some thought, she said, "Not much, just about a hundred of my


    stores."


    Grace frowned at the answer.


    Emily carefully put the ne back in the box.


    "Xander is really generous to you. Any random gift is worth hundreds of millions of dors. Ask him


    if he has any siblings and introduce one to me."


    Graceughed and scolded her for being obsessed with money. "But he does have a younger


    brother..."


    "He''s not an only child? Who''s his younger brother?"


    After careful consideration, Grace changed the subject and didn''t answer directly.


    While the two besties chatted enthusiastically, Peter stood at the door and received a call.


    "Benjamin will probably send Jessica out of Pamore these two days. Keep an eye on his


    movements. Inform me if there''s anything."


    "Got it."

    The ne slowly took off. Before hanging up the phone, Xander heard thest sentence from the


    other party.


    "It''s confirmed. The Hawkins family indeed has an eldest son. Not Benjamin, but a person named


    Alexander.


    "He''s not a businessman. He works for the government."
