In the Lap of Luxury by Unsweetened Chestnuts

Grace knew that the two of them had struck a deal, but she still frowned. "I don't know him."

"You will."

After dropping Noelle off at home, Grace headed straight to Amirate and called Luke over. "Help me look up someone named Bobby Baxter."

Shawn was right. She couldn't provoke Jake right now. If he were to send the photos to Xander, it would cause a huge problem.

She needed to navigate this carefully and find an opportunity to crush Jake.

Before long, Luke found out about Bobby. "Bobby Baxter is the president of Aether Group. In terms of infrastructure, Aether Group has secured most of the national corporate projects. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say they're like a state-owned enterprise. He holds considerable sway."

Grace's heart sank at those words. Jake's current project also had ties to Aether Group. Why was he looking for dirt on Bobby, and why was he so confident that she could find it?

"Oh, and Bobby is on the list of attendees for our annual party."

"Why was he invited?"

Luke smiled. "Ms. Lewis, have you forgotten? It was your idea to invite all the top executives on par with Amirate."

Grace had almost forgotten. No wonder Jake was so confident. He had already investigated thoroughly.

Seeing her troubled expression, Luke asked, "Should we still send the invitation?"

"Yes."
