Chapter 22 Trying to Flaunt Your Wealth

Grace looked stunning today.

Her long hair fell over her shoulders. Dressed in a luxurious gown that had never been seen on the market before, she was even more dazzling in the crowd.

No one could take their eyes off her.

Slowly, she made her way toward Benjamin.

Benjamin watched her, his eyes dark with an unidentifiable emotion.

Grace was no longer the woman he remembered. She used to be gentle and demure. Now, she

was confident and beautiful.

“Where’s your boss?” Benjamin asked coldly.

Grace laughed. “As you can see, I’m alone. Disappointed?”

So he had set his sights on Aaron since his dumb texts to her hadn’t worked.

Well, he would have to get through her first!

Benjamin’s expression darkened when he realized that his plans had been discovered. It didn’t help that Grace was clearly laughing at him.

Grace ignored Benjamin and entered the venue.
