Chapter 105 A Series of Misunderstandings

“In the coming days, Lewis Corporation will file lawsuits against all the entertainment media outlets involved in defamation.

After that, we will spare no expense in acquiring these companies,” Aaron stated. His icy gaze briefly flicked toward Richard.

In the crowd, Richard was holding a champagne glass. His expression underwent a drastic change as he felt an overwhelming sense of unease and apprehension.

He couldn’t have anticipated that the person whose downfall he had tried to orchestrate using the entire entertainment industry in Pamore would have such strong and influential backing.

The journalists present were left astonished. Wasn’t this outright suppression?

The entertainment industry in Pamore will surely become chaotic soon.

Meanwhile, GEM Magazine, led by Zoey, promptly published a report revealing Grace’s

identity and the benevolent actions of the Calico.

This sparked fervent dcussions among netizens.

“Goodness gracious! How many good deeds in past lives does it take to become the richest person’s granddaughter? I’m so jealous…”

“She’s wealthy, kind–hearted, and, above all, so beautiful. That Hawkins man must be a fool to have divorced her!”

“He must be blind. Otherwise, how could he choose such an ordinary–looking mistress as a replacement?”

“I knew there would be a twist in this!”

“With all due respect, is there a possibility that Grace might have any lost siblings? I feel a connection between us. 11

Meanwhile, Grace held onto Aaron’s arm as they descended from the stage.

Upon reaching Harold, Richard/warmly approached them with a friendly smile and said, “I never realized you were Ms. Lewis‘ grandfather.

“My sincere apologies for not recognizing your relationship sooner. It’s all a misunderstanding.”

Richard’s face bore an ingratiating smile. It appeared rather uncomfortable to those who were watching.

Harold snorted coldly and said, “The things you’ve done to my beloved granddaughter are far

“You sent thugs to harm my sister, used malicious words to defame her, and your granddaughter even caused her car accident,” Aaron said as his eyes grew colder.

“It’s about time we settled the score with Quine Group.”

Richard hurriedly explained in a panic, “My employees were the ones responsible for these actions. I know nothing about them!”

Quine Group couldn’t withstand Lewis Corporation’s retaliation. The power disparity between both sides was far too significant.

Richard’s current efforts to make amends were a desperate attempt to save himself and his company.

Benjamin had decided to marry Grace, and now Quine Group had become enemies of Lewis Corporation. Their future prospects appeared to be quite challenging.

“Is that so? But I distinctly remember someone threatening me over the phone and claiming they would expose me to my grandpa,” Grace said while raising an eyebrow. Her red l*ps parted with a touch of arrogance.

Deep down, Richard regretted trying to intimidate and threaten her in the first place. He felt like giving himself a big slap.

“Ms. Lewis, here’s the deal. Once my granddaughter has her child, I’ll make sure she goes to prison for what she did to you.

“Not just that, I would personally offer you some compensation for the thugs who harmed you, as well as for the spreading of rumors and defamation.

“It’s a gesture of goodwill on my part. What do you think?” Richard pledged earnestly.

“Hmph! Do you believe that a paltry sum can compensate for the suffering my granddaughter has endured?

“Do you think Lewis Corporation is that desperate for your money?” Harold’s anger grew as he spoke.

“I absolutely didn’t mean it that way. I truly want to make amends!” Richard responded.

“Truly? Are you sure?” Grace took a few steps forward and lightly tapped his arm with her fingertip.

Richard nodded repeatedly, assuring her, “Yes! Absolutely! 100%!”

“Luke, bring me the stuff,” Grace instructed calmly.

“Okay,” Luke replied.

Initially, Richard wasn’t quite sure what she was referring to. It wasn’t until Luke brought a red plastic bag and retrieved his cherished diamond thumb ring from it.

His eyes widened with astonishment when he saw it.
