*****While Grace's mind raced, trying to decipher Mason and his sister's intentions and formulate a response, the representatives gradually regained their composure and exchanged glances.‘Did I somehow sleep through that moment?’ one of them wondered, racking his brain to recall when such a scene had occurred.‘Could these siblings be talking about another place?’ another person among the representatives pondered.Ever since they had arrived, Mason had been the one showing off his authority and flaunting his newfound power, leaving Grace no opportunity to speak, let alone plead. And yet now...Back to Grace, her gaze darted between Mason and Honey after a moment, still searching for an explanation behind their sudden alliance in this obvious fabrication.No matter how much she tried to make sense of their motives, however, she found nothing.Eventually, she shook her head slightly, deciding not to waste more energy on deciphering their games again.Taking a deep breath, she straight

*****The room fell into deafening silence and thick with tension after Mason finished addressing Lucius. Most people's hearts pound in their chests as they realize that whatever Mason was cooking, they will find out now.On the other hand, however, Lucius’s eyes gleamed with playfulness after hearing Mason’s words, and then he shifted his gaze toward Grace, his lips curling into a predatory smile.“Wifey,” he called out, his voice dripping with mock affection.The silence in the room became several times stronger.“I knew your defiance yesterday and you telling me you wouldn’t divorce that nobody was nothing but you just playing hard to get,” Lucius continued, his voice tinged with arrogance. “And I must say, it worked. I’m even more drawn to you now.”Behind him, his secretary stiffened, her face darkening with barely concealed anger. Her glare immediately settled on Grace, radiating venomous jealousy and hatred.‘How... how dare she?’ she thought, her chest heaving with supp

*****The room was currently locked in stunned silence, the kind that weighed heavy and thick like an oppressive fog, everyone staring at Xavier in a daze.Honey’s face was an alarming shade of red, her chest heaving hysterically as though she were on the verge of explosion as she glared daggers at Xavier.This continued for a moment until eventually;“What... did... you... just... say?” she hissed through clenched teeth, her voice trembling with fury.“Huh?” Xavier’s brows furrowed, then completely unfazed, tilted his head as though genuinely confused by Honey’s reaction.“Why are you angry?” he asked seriously, his tone so sincere it was almost disarming.“Huh?” Everyone froze, the absurdity of Xavier’s question so alarming that they couldn’t believe their ears.‘He seriously did not just ask that question, did he?’ they wondered, and just then;“You… you… you…” Honey stammered, her finger trembling as she pointed at Xavier. “Did you just ask me why I’m angry?” She spat thr

*****“This…” Mason’s heart skipped a beat, seeing what his sister was going to do, making panic flash across his face.“Please control yourself, sister,” he pleaded frantically and without a second thought, grabbed Honey’s arm, holding her back.In the next second;“Let go of me!” Honey shrieked, thrashing violently in his grip. “I’ll kill him! I must kill him today!”“I know you must,” Mason responded, still holding Honey back firmly, his expression stricken. “We’ll deal with him, but not here! Don’t let your anger ruin everything we’ve worked for,” Mason whispered urgently into her ears, his grip tightening.Unfortunately for him, however, Honey was already beyond reason, her screams echoing in the room. “I don’t care!” she howled, her voice cracking as she struggled against Mason’s hold.“I must make him pay for this by sending him to his grave today!” Honey screamed, her voice breaking as she fought against Mason’s grip.“This…” everyone stared, not knowing what to think,

*****‘What is he talking about?’This question flashed through everyone’s mind, except Lucius, his entourage, and the stunned representatives. Their expressions froze, momentarily rendered speechless, while confusion danced in the others’ furrowed brows.‘So, he really did know something,’ this thought eventually struck the representatives like a bolt of lightning, their gazes darting to Lucius, just in time to notice his eyes igniting with a volatile flame, locking onto Xavier with a look that promised retribution, his teeth slightly grinding against each other.The most dumbstruck of all was Grace and Mason, and right now, both of them remained in stunned disbelief, their faces pale as the realization sank in. They, too, turned toward Lucius, instinctively waiting for him to speak.Shocked beyond Grace, however, was Mason, who had been adamant about blaming Grace for the partner companies’ action, refusing to accept that she hadn’t colluded with them in sabotaging his shot at
