In the Lap of Luxury
Chapter 512 Grace Lewis Is My Boss

Seeing that Grace wasn't saying anything, Troy thought Max's name had frightened her. So he added, "Are you scared? Then, let me go! If Max comes, he won't let you off the hook!" "Let you go? Stop daydreaming! I'll only send you to prison."

He smiled. "You won't succeed. Max knows people in the police too."

"Really? I'd like to see if he'll save you." As Grace said that, she took out her phone and called Max.

Troy thought she was just acting. How could she have anything to do with Max? Unexpectedly, Max's voice came from the phone.

"Ms. Lewis, it's so rare that you take the initiative to call me."

Grace got straight to the point. "I have something to ask you."

"Go ahead!"

"Do you know Troy Barker?"

Max fell into thought and soon recalled something. "I know him. He's one of my subordinates."

Grace looked at Troy. For some reason, her sharp gaze made him shudder subconsciously. He asked uncertainly, "Y-You know Max?" Despite having asked that, he still thought it was impossible.

Max was well-known in the underworld, but Grace was only a wealthy lady. How could she have anything to do with the notorious Max? Maybe she was just trying to scare him!

"Stop acting! How can you have a connection to Max?"

Without hesitation, Grace threw the phone at him. Before Troy could say anything, Max's furious voice boomed, "Troy! What the hell did you do?"

His momentum weakened. "Max?"

Troy quickly picked up the phone and answered the call. After listening to Max, he couldn't help but tremble. He responded repeatedly, "Yes, Max! Yes, I'm a fool! I'm a bastard! I deserve to die!" As he spoke, he slapped himself hard.

Max said harshly, "Ms. Lewis is my boss! It's okay if you offend me, but you messed with her. It'll be difficult to handle this matter. Everything depends on her mood.

"No matter how she deals with you, you must cooperate obediently and not have any objections. Otherwise ..."

Max didn't finish his sentence, but Troy already understood what he meant.

He was used to seeing Max's harshness. He also knew the consequences if he didn't obey Max.

So he answered, "Yes, Max, I got it!"

By the time Troy ended the call, his back was already covered in sweat. When he looked at Grace again, his attitude had changed. His initial disdain had now morphed into fear.

He had never expected that Max would treat Grace as his boss. He had been so dumb to provoke her!

The next second, he kneeled on the ground. "Ms. Lewis, I was blind! You can deal with me any way you want! It's also fine to send me to prison!"
