Chapter 278 Unexpected Incident

Xander focused on the road with his hands gripping the steering wheel tightly. At the same time, he tried his best to control his emotions.

Calmly, he said, “Follow your heart. Even if you always consider me a brother in your heart, that’s okay. Don’t force yourself to do things you don’t like.”

Grace knew that Xander understood her the most in the whole world.

She didn’t want to let his feelings down.

So perhaps she could really try to take this brave step.

“I know, Xander.”

Xander smiled with relief. “I’ll have the representative of the Dunhill project from Futurelink

go to Amirate tomorrow, and we can sign the contract, okay?”

Grace took a moment to catch up with this sudden change of topic.

“Sure! I look forward to working with you, Mr. Fulton.”

The next day, the representative from Futurelink arrived at Amirate early in the morning.

At 10:00 am, the representatives from the two companies signed the contract.

“Mr. Fulton, from now on, our two companies are like one big family. We’ll need mutual support in our business dealings,” Grace said with a smile.

Meanwhile, Xander stared at her and replied, “Naturally, Ms. Lewis. The Dunhill project has a long duration and a significant financial investment. I wonder when we can go for a field visit together.”

Grace had already planned for this.

“Next week is fine. I’ve already asked my assistant to arrange the schedule. Would you be

available then?”

Xander pondered for a moment and replied calmly, “I think I will be.”

The two exchanged a smile.

As they left the office, Grace couldn’t hold back anymore. “Xander, I suddenly realized that you look quite hot when you’re serious.”

“Gracie, you’re getting better at your words. But still, you need to do your job well.”

Grace nodded repeatedly. “Rest assured, Mr. Fulton.”

She personally escorted Xander out of the building, and as they left the company, he stopped. Go back inside. There’s no need to see me off.”

Grace agreed with a nod. “See you next week.”

As she said that, she waved to Xander.

At that moment, Grace’s attention was entirely on Xander. She was completely unaware that a car was speeding toward her from the side.

Suddenly, they heard a screeching sound.

Grace turned around, seeing the car coming straight at her. In that instant, she forgot to react.

“Watch out!”

Xander rushed over, pushing her to the ground. The two rolled for a moment, and the next second, there was a loud bang.

The car had crashed straight into a pillar, and the sound of shattering glass filled the air.

“Ah!”

“Someone, come quickly! A car hit the pillar!”

“The driver is still in there. Call for help!”

“Why are you still standing there? Help them! Call 911!”

The surroundings were filled with chaotic voices. Grace lay on the ground, feeling dizzy and

unable to get her bearings.

“Gracie, are you okay? Are you hurt?”

Xander’s concerned voice sounded in her ear as he checked her for injuries.

Shaking her head, Grace replied, “Xander, I’m fine.‘

Xander helped her up from the ground.

Meanwhile, more and more onlookers gathered around.

Given that it was such a significant incident, alarms were ringing throughout the building.

Broken glass was scattered on the ground, and the car was dented. There was smoke rising from its back. It was stuck and unable to move.

Looking at the car, Gráce felt a strange familiarity. “Xander, I think I’ve seen this car before.”
