"How is this not good news? Byte Technologies is Amirate's partner for this project, and Amirate belongs to the Lewis family.
"If you help me, you're helping the entire family. Don't you think of yourself as part of the Lewis family?" Victor didn't reply to her voice message for a long time.
Raymond was all smiles. "I can imagine the expression on Victor's face right now." Grace giggled. When she looked at Raymond from this angle in the car, Grace realized that the authority Xander exuded was very similar to that of his father.

Xander had been focusing completely on Futurelink Corporation, and as a result, he didn't have as much energy to manage Fulton Group.
She couldn't help defending Xander. "Xander started managing Fulton Group when he was 18 years old because of you. He's been doing it all this time, so he deserves a rest." Raymond burst into laughter and sighed. "I did give him a hard tfor several years. | do feel sorry for him." Grace's heart skipped a beat. "Xander is very capable." "His mother and | have never made him want for anything, but we owe him a lot emotionally. He's very reticent and almost never expresses his true emotions. Sometimes, | can't tell what he really thinks." When Raymond said this, he seemed troubled.
"He stopped telling us what was on his mind when he was 18 years old. In the business world, he's ruthless and decisive, and anyone who sees him addresses him as Mr. Fulton out of respect.
"In the end, all he hears are these terms of authority. No one ever calls him Xander now, except those who are close to him." Grace was engrossed in his words. She could imagine how difficult it had been for Xander all these years.
"Gracie, | should have done better for him," Raymond said suddenly, and he looked as if he had aged ten years.
Grace didn't ask why he was sorry. She respected his privacy.
When they reached the Fulton residence, Hestia was delighted to see Grace. "Gracie! You remembered to visit me!" Grace dove into her embrace. "How could | forget you, Aunt Hestia? I've missed you so much!" Hestia's face was filled with joy, but her expression changed completely when she saw Raymond behind Grace. "Get out." "Hestia—" "Get out! Are you deaf?" "Aunt Hestia—" "Don't bother yourself about this, Gracie." Hestia was determined, and she pulled Grace into the house. She shut the door firmly, leaving Raymond outside.

"Uncle Raymond helpedtoday, Aunt Hestia. This doesn't seem nice." Hestia was extremely determined and showed no mercy. "You're his goddaughter! He's supposed to help you!" Grace was about to say something else, but she felt that something didn't seem right with Hestia today. She looked closely and saw that there were tears in the corner of Hestia's eyes.
"Aunt Hestia ... Have you been crying? Who hurt you?" Hestia wiped her eyes. "You're mistaken." Grace was anxious. "Tellthe truth. What happened?" Hestia took a deep breath. "Nothing happened. I'm just old and emotional. Thinking about the past got my mood down for a bit." Grace was doubtful. "Really?" "Really. You must be tired. Go take a hot shower and sleep withtonight!" Grace didn't press on and left to take a shower. She had just cout of the bathroom when she received Victor's reply.
"You little brat. Let Byte Technologies know that I'll be there tomorrow." Grace laughed and replied to him. Once she was done with that, she walked out of the room, wrapped in a towel.
"Aunt Hestia—" Suddenly, she stopped in her tracks.
