IN THE LAP OF LUXURY BY UNSWEETENED CHESTNUTS - Season 2 Episode 35

“Ben!” He hadn’t even taken two steps before Celia blocked his path.

Benjamin’s expression was cold and impatient. “What?”

Celia had been mocked by her lackeys for bragging, so she needed Benjamin to help her regain her

dignity.

As far as she could see, only he could help her. After all, everyone in Pamore had to show respect to

their family.

“Ben, how’s your relationship with Mr. Fulton from Futurelink Corporation?”

At the mention of Xander, Benjamin’s gaze chilled further, and his lips curled. “I don’t know him well,

but there’s someone who has a pretty good relationship with him.”

Celia was startled and followed his line of vision. Immediately, she saw Grace and Xander in

the crowd.

The fire of jealousy flamed up in her immediately, and she clenched her fists.

“That bitch, Grace! It’s been such a short time since she left you, and now she’s getting involved with

Futurelink Corporation’s president! She’s shameless!”

Not to mention that it was with a man as outstanding as Xander. He was way out of Grace’s league!

Benjamin could sense her jealousy, which seemed just as strong as his. He understood immediately.

“Do you have feelings for this Xander fellow?”

Celia huffed coldly. “Don’t you think it’s a waste for such a good man to be with Grace?”

She felt frustrated. She couldn’t understand why Grace had such good luck and had so many

accomplished men surrounding her.

“Ben, help me!”

Benjamin found her ridiculous and refused without hesitating. “I can’t help you.”

Celia was a little disappointed. “Do you still have feelings for Grace? Is that why you’re protecting her

so much?”

“None of your business!”

“Ben!” Celia stomped her foot angrily.

“No matter what you think, I’m determined to have Xander!” Celia spoke very directly

When she thought about how tactless her lackeys were, she wanted nothing better than to slap

The only way she could regain her dignity was by getting Xander.

At this moment, Celia was full of energy. “I’m Celia Hawkins. If there’s something that I want, I’ll get it,

and I’m determined to get Xander.”

“Do whatever you want, but don’t blame me for not warning you. Men always want what they can’t

have. Those that serve themselves up on a platter are worthless. Also, you’re not allowed

to hurt Grace.”



Celia wasn’t listening to Benjamin at all. All she could think about was how to seduce Xander.

So she just answered distractedly, “Got it.”

Then, Celia walked toward Xander and Grace.

“Mr. Fulton, I’ve heard so many good things about you!” Celia greeted Xander, smiling.

As a socialite from a well–known family, Celia was fair and pretty. She looked seductive as she

looked coyly at Xander.

Men were all visual creatures. She was sure that she was charming enough to attract a man like

Xander.

However, at that moment, Xander was conversing with a few directors and hadn’t even noticed Celia.

Celia was annoyed and continued speaking, “Mr. Fulton, I’m Celia from the Hawkins family. It’s nice to

meet you.”

The words “Hawkins family” successfully caught Xander’s attention. He glanced at Celia and

immediately guessed what she was doing.

He had seen too many women like her.

Xander waved his hand and pulled Grace close to him. Then he said, “Hawk what? Do you know

them?”

When Grace saw Celia trying to be flirty, she just found it extremely off–putting. She couldn’t resist

saying, “Oh, the heiress of the Hawkins family! She’s my ex–sister–in–law.”
