Frederick was stunned by his friend’s retort. But he just assumed Benjamin was in a bad mood
because he had lost.
“I haven’t got time to ask that flirty woman. I’d rather just avoid people like that.”
“Really?” Grace’s cold voice rang out right behind Frederick, and he jumped in shock.
He turned around and flipped out. “Why do you walk so silently?”
“I’m right here. You can ask me straight to my face.”
Grace stood with her arms folded, and there was an imposing glare in her eyes. She had obviously
heard Frederick insulting her behind her back.
Benjamin stood quietly to the side. Although he didn’t look directly at Grace, he couldn’t help glancing
at her a few times.
He didn’t know why, but he felt perturbed.
“Pshh, I was never interested in women like you to begin with. Don’t throw yourself at me, and go and
find your patron,” Frederick flapped his hands contemptuously.

“Has anyone ever told you that you resemble a nosy old woman when you gossip?”
…
Frederick was outraged. “You! You keep hanging around my bro even though you both got divorced,
and you messed up his collaboration!
“I’ve seen many scheming bitches like you! And yet you have the audacity to mock me? It’s ridiculous.”
At that moment, a cleaning staff member walked past while pushing a cleaning cart.
Grace picked up a pail of dirty water that had been used to clean the skirting board and splashed the
water all over Frederick.
Frederick was dressed in a white linen suit. After he had gotten drenched, the fabric not only changed
color but also clearly revealed his nipples and private parts.
It looked worse than being completely n*ked!
He hurriedly covered his chest with one hand and tried to cover the lower part of his b*dy with the
other, but his frantic fumbling only looked comical.
“Grace Lewis! How dare you splash water at me?”
“Does this match your idea of a patron’s actions?” Grace took out a checkbook from her bag

“Fill in the amount yourself. I’ll pay for the clothes and compensate for your humiliation.”
“The next time I hear you badmouthing me, it won’t be dirty water that I’ll throw at you.” She walked off
in her high heels.
Frederick picked up the check and saw that no number had been filled in. Grace’s signature was
all that was written on it.
He turned and asked Benjamin, “Is that woman crazy? How can I go out and face people like
this?”
Benjamin answered coldly, “You deserved it.”
Then he took off his jacket and flung it at Frederick’s face.
Frederick pulled at the clothes and quickly used the jacket to cover his waist area.
He turned to look at the two, who were ignoring him. “Hey! How can you all leave? Do you think I
deserve this?”
Grace returned to the office and checked on the work the investment department had done

She realized that since Timothy had joined, there had been a few significant increases in
income returns.
It now looked like keeping him at the company had truly been the correct decision.
Timothy had always been sensitive to the field of venture capital. When he had gotten his first share,
he had started a venture capital company.
When he had been 15 years old, he had made a name for himself on Bull Street. But Mr. Donegan
Senior had been worried that Timothy would lose himself in money.
If only he hadn’t forced Timothy to come back to their own company to learn management, .things
might be very different now.
After checking all the reports, Grace finished work for the day.
She had just stepped outside the door when an eye–catching red sports car stopped right at
her feet.
Timothy got out of the car. This time, he didn’t bombard her with roses but held up an
intricate box instead.
His eyes were still as flirty as always and were filled with a carefree hint of mirth. “Milady, we meet
again.”
