Xander personally drove Grace to the airport. She sat in the passenger's seat, nagging at him the entire way there.
"Aaron says that he'll also return to Pamore for the New Year once he's taken care of everything here. He's also bringing Grandpa. "What about you? Will you cback?" The New Year was approaching, and it was a very important day in their culture.
Xander looked gently at her. "I'll go wherever you are." Grace broke into a smile.
Victor was already at the airport. He looked resigned when he saw them holding hands. "Do you have to be so lovey-dovey?" Xander punched him on the shoulder. "I didn't get a chance this time, but I'll treat you to a meal next time." "Did I say I wanted to eat with you? We ate too many meals together when we were students." Xander laughed. "Take care of Grace." "She's my little sister. You're crossing the line and meddling." "Victor..." Grace was displeased.

Hazel swiftly walked over to them. "Ms. Lewis, I've checked in your luggage for you already. This is your boarding pass." Grace glanced at her, but did not take it.
Hazel's reappearance next to Xander meant that Fulton Group had withdrawn her punishment and decided not to send her to a branch company.
Grace inclined her head and took it. "Take care of Xander." "Thank you for your kindness, Ms. Lewis. I will treasure this chance." The plane sped through the sky and disappeared without a trace.
Xander's smile disappeared, and he turned to leave.
Hazel followed closely behind him. "Mr. Fulton, you told us to keep an eye on Hawkins Group. We've found a loophole." This was an instruction he had given previously. Xander walked straight ahead. "That's very conscientious of you." "I would never dare to forget a command of yours." "What loophole is it?" "There's a problem with Hawkins Group's taxes. It's neither big nor small.
"Mr. Hawkins may or may not know about it, but he does have connections to the high-level velauthorities. They might be turning a blind eye on purpose." "How do you know that Benjamin doesn't know?" "I've investigated this. The tax financial reports that Hawkins Group's employees have been submitting are suspected of being false." Xander stopped in his tracks. "Givethe details." After living in Pamore for stime, Grace had gradually gotten used to the climate.
The moment she got off the plane land said goodbye to Victor, she received a call from Zoey, who sounded rather sarcastic. "Gracie, you're finally back." Grace was amused. "How did you find out? Do you have spies on me?" "Your location on the Byteshows that you're already in Pamore." Before getting on the plane, Grace had been bored with nothing to do, so she had edited a few videos and uploaded them.
She looked at them again, and saw that in just a few short hours she already had hundreds of thousands of likes. There were also countless comments.
"You really are a media figure. News of any movement of yours travels like lightning." Since it had been a while since they'd seen each other, Zoey asked her out for dinner.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"But I happen to have an interview, so you may have to wait forfor a while." Grace didn't mind. She asked Zoey for the address.
Zoey was having her interview at a café known for its ambience.
The place had been set up with a high-resolution camera and glaring lights, and staff were busy inside.
Grace tiptoed and caught sight of Zoey's elegant figure.
Her view of the interviewee was blocked, but she could just make out a pair of broad shoulders. It was probably a man, although she couldn't tell who it was. S "Excuse me. Who's being interviewed?" Grace casually asked one of the staff.
"He's the man of the hour in Pamore right now. Don't you know him?" Grace had been gone for a week, and she hadn't expected a new "man of the hour" to pop up out of nowhere. She shook her head. "Nope." "Then, move aside. Don't interrupt my work." Grace tutted.
