In the Lap of Luxury by Unsweetened Chestnuts

Celia hadn't been trying to seize any so-called opportunity. She had just wanted to embarrass Grace and give her a slap in the face.

"If you put it that way, Joshua came for me too. In the end, I'm the one who got you into this mess."

Grace immediately retorted, "No, it has nothing to do with you."

Xander calmly held her cold hand. "The police are already collecting evidence. Based on my understanding of Joshua, he wouldn't have left any clues behind. It's unlikely that they'll find any substantial evidence."

"But this is illegal! Are we just going to let them get away with it?"

"Of course not. There are many ways to bring them down. You're so smart. You'll surely think of something.

"But right now, you're too angry and can't think straight. Don't you think you should calm down first?"

Xander's voice was soft and gentle. For some reason, Grace's tumultuous emotions suddenly calmed down. She nodded obediently, feeling her confidence return once more.

She sighed. "Xander, you actually have the potential to be a teacher. If you weren't in business, you would surely have students all over the world."

He had tried to comfort her sincerely, but she ended up saying he should be a teacher.

She had never really asked about his past. She only knew that everything he was doing now wasn't what he was passionate about.
