IN THE LAP OF LUXURY BY UNSWEETENED CHESTNUTS - Season 2 Episode 13

Upon returning to Amirate Corporation, Timothy immediately barged into Grace’s office.

“Milady, now that your identity is public, why don’t we just follow our parents‘ wishes and get married?”

he asked.

Grace decisively refused, “I’m sorry, but I have no intention of marrying again at the moment.

“Then, when you want to get married, just let me know. I’ll always be ready to marry you.”

Grac felt a headache coming on and replied, “Mr. Donegan, we’re not a good match. I’ve told you this

before. Why are you so persistent?”

“What’s not a good match? Please don’t rush to judge. You haven’t really gotten to know me, and yet

you’re rejecting me outright,” Timothy blurted out anxiously.

“Do you

know me, then?” Grace retorted, leaving him momentarily lost for words.

“We can get to know each other gradually in the future. There’s plenty of time…” he trailed off, starting

to lack confidence.

Ultimately, he said determinedly, “You think I don’t know you well enough, and that’s why you’re

rejecting me, right? From now on, I’ll slowly get to know you.”

Grace was somewhat helpless, wondering why she couldn’t get through to him.

“No… Marriage needs a foundation of affection. A lasting marriage is built on mutual love.”

“Alright, then I’ll find a way to make you fall in love with me,” Timothy said confidently.

There was a rare seriousness in his eyes.

Grace was about to say something, but he beat her to it. “My mind is made up. Don’t worry. My love for

you won’t be a burden, and you won’t feel any pressure. We have a lot of time

ahead of us.”

As he finished speaking, he wore a big smile and waved to her.

“Milady, carry on with your work! I’ll go back to work too.“.

Watching his retreating back, Grace let out a small sigh.

She became exceptionally busy, with meetings of all sizes happening one after another. The executive

office on the top floor was frequently brightly lit.

After hearing the reports from his subordinates, Samuel wore a disdainful expression.

“She’s so good at putting on a show. I want to see how she can increase the company’s

+15 BONUS

“Director Walker, rest assured. We’re well aware of the projects she’s handling. At the moment, there

isn’t a single project that can turn the tide for her.”

Samuel was very satisfied. “You’ve done well! Keep a close watch, and don’t let her slip through the

cracks.”

“Alright.”

“By the way, I asked you to arrange a meeting with Mr. Hawkins and Mr. Barnes. Any news on that?”

“It’s been confirmed for 7:00 pm tonight at Aroma Restaurant. Both Mr. Hawkins and Mr. Barnes will be

present. The restaurant has already been informed.”

“Good. Remind me to attend on time.”

“Yes, Director Walker.”

There was a deep, meaningful look in Samuel’s eyes.

The divorce between Benjamin and Grace had caused quite a stir in the city. The two of them

were clearly not on good terms.

As the saying goes, your enemy’s enemy was your friend. If Samuel could win Benjamin over, he could

have a higher chance of success.

At that thought, Samuel felt immensely satisfied.

At 7:00 pm, Samuel had arrived at the restaurant early and was waiting in the private room.

He looked at his watch and couldn’t help but ask his assistant, “It’s this late. Why haven’t they come

yet?”
