+15 BONUS
Noticing the tense atmosphere, Aaron tried to defuse it by asking Caleb, “Even if Grandpa didn’t ask
you to come back, will you dare not come?”
“Of course not. It’s Grandpa’s birthday. I have to be there.” Caleb didn’t dare lift his head after being
scolded.
Suddenly, Grace chuckled, Only Aaron and Harold could control Caleb.
By this point, Harold’s anger had subsided.
“Assist Gracie well in the nanorobots project,” he instructed Victor.
“Oh, Grandpa, you don’t need to remind Victor. He’ll do his best.” Smiling, Grace embraced
her two brothers.
Victor responded nonchalantly, “Of course.”
Seeing Grace so dedicated to her career, Harold felt at ease.
“Grandpa needs to rest. We’ll talk next time,” Aaron said.
The family then ended the video call.
In the living room, Richard was leisurely sipping tea while waiting for good news.
Habitually, he rubbed his thumb and remembered that his diamond thumb ring was still
missing.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHis mood soured, but the thought of getting it back soon made him hum a happy tune.
Meanwhile, his butler had been standing still for a while. When he noticed that the people he had sent
out hadn’t reported back yet, he quietly moved to the side and called the tattooed man’s phone.
After several attempts, the call finally connected.
“Hey! What’s taking you so long with this simple task? Have you retrieved the ring?”
“This is the police station. We were just looking for you. Please come over to the station,” a voice on
the other end of the line said.
Shocked, the butler dropped his phone and hurried to Richard’s side.
“We’re in trouble, Mr. Quine Senior. Those men have been taken to the police station. The police want
you to go there now.”

This time, Richard not only smashed his teacup but also the teapot.
He couldn’t believe that a vixen who had risen to power through men had humiliated him. No. one had
dared to disrespect him like this.
“Summon all the executives from the entertainment news companies. I want this woman to be a pariah
in Pamore!”
At this moment, Benjamin coincidentally arrived at Quine Residence.
Yvonne was supposed to get a prenatal check–up that day. After escorting her into Quine Residence,
he had originally planned to leave.
However, he had noticed several familiar entertainment news company executives gathering in the
backyard.
As he approachéd, he overheard Richard’s plan.
“The information I’m giving you is enough to fill several pages. Don’t take any of them down without my
permission.”
Richard continued, “If anyone does that, it means going against the Quines of Pamore! You all know
the consequences.”
Benjamin quickly left Quine Residence and returned to his car. He immediately called Grace.
On the first attempt, the call was rejected.
He patiently dialed again, finally getting through.
“Yes, Mr. Hawkins?”
“I’ll tell you this one last time. Quickly return Richard’s thumb ring to him.”
Grace’s voice remained indifferent. “That’s none of your business.”
“Why must you provoke him?” He was growing impatient, thinking that she just wouldn’t
listen.
Just then. Grace snorted. “Mr. Hawkins, you and I both know who provoked whom in the first place.”
Yvonne had planned the car accident, and Grace had merely retaliated.
“He has gathered the entire entertainment news companies to tarnish your reputation. Why escalate
things to this extent? It’s just a small thumb ring.”
“Ha! Just a small thumb ring?”
“Cut your losses, Grace.” Benjamin’s voice was stern. “It’s the same condition as last time. I’ll cover the

“No way.”
Hearing that, he frowned. “You’re literally going against the world! Is it worth it for the sake of such a
small matter?”
“Benjamin, you and Richard are fundamentally the same. Both of you see me as a powerless woman,
perhaps lucky to have climbed the social ladder to become Amirate’s general manager.
“In your eyes, my dignity is worth nothing, not even as much as the dogs you keep. All that matters to
you is whether your goals are achieved. You never care about others.” Grace seethed with anger.
After a brief pause, she continued, “If I didn’t have this diamond thumb ring today, I might not even
have had the opportunity to negotiate with you, right?”
Grace’s words left Benjamin speechless, for she had struck a chord with his thoughts.
If she had still been his wife, he would have directly demanded her to come and apologize and return
the diamond thumb ring willingly.
Without that ring, he might have even chosen to stand back and observe, nursing his grievances
against her.
