"Mr. Williams, I've finished what you asked. About the agreement we had earlier ..." "Don't worry, I'll keep my promise." Grace nodded, somewhat relieved.

"Although we've gotten the approval, I hope your company can keep it confidential. It's not fully implemented yet, and it could be dangerous if someone with bad intentions were to interfere." It was a done deal, but caution was still necessary.

"Of course, I'll instruct everyone to keep it under wraps until the right moment to go public!" Matthew promised.

She just stared at the tea in front of her. Xander silently pushed a bowl of soup toward her, gesturing for her to eat.

Grace looked up to see Hestia watching them with a wholessmile. Feeling a bit embarrassed, she took a spoonful of the soup. "Mr. Thorne, can we finish establishing connections with other foreign countries before Black Friday?" "It's a bit rushed." Matthew thought for a moment and added, "Actually, there's no need to hurry. As long as this deal succeeds, we will reap the long- term benefits." "I understand. But I'm really in a rush right now." Everyone in the industry knew of the competition between Grace and Samuel.

Matthew understood and said, "Ms. Lewis, I'll do my best to help you." After the call, Xander pushed a small bowl of peeled shrimp toward Grace. "It's almost the end of the year. Are you worried?"

"There's still time. You don't need to worry." "I'm asking about your hands!" "They're fine." After a moment, Xander frowned and asked, "I remember you used to love shrimp. Don't you love it anymore?" His fingertips were clearly red.

Grace felt guilty and said, "I do love them, but you don't need to do this." "That's enough, then," Xander said casually.

Hestia almost laughed out loud, "Why g other than shrit SChin on her hand." do I feel like you're talking about Grace choked, "Aunt Hestia!" Hestia coughed lightly and stopped teasing her. "When are you returning to Pamore?" "Tomorrow, Luke has already booked the tickets." Hestia was startled and looked at Xander, who looked upset.

"That's so soon." "Xander, do you have other matters to deal with?" Grace was startled and cto a realization. But since Hestia was there, she didn't say more.

"No need." Hestia was the first to stop her. "Your foundation in Amirate Corporation is still rockThere's a lot to keep you busy. Don't delay because of Xander." "You should go back first. I'll handle things here." Grace felt uncomfortable. She ate smore snacks, then excusedet herself to go upstairs to wash up.

But in reality, she stood in the corner of the stairs. Content belongs to ŚwHestia's affectionate facade fell away. She pointed at Xander's wound. "I want you to return this stab."
