Chapter 92

Colin was stunned for a second.

A staff member who knew Grace explained, “This is the general manager of the Angle Group.”

“It turns out to be just a manager. I thought it was the boss of the Angle Group.”

Colin’s people burst into laughter.

But Grace didn’t get stage fright at all. She walked up to Tom to check if he was injured.

Fortunately, although this little bas tard had lost his imposing manner today, he hadn’t been beaten up yet.

After making sure that Tom was fine, Grace went straight to a chair and sat down, as if there was no one else around.

She was so tired that if she could sit down to negotiate, she wouldn’t even get up again.

But in Colin’s eyes, her actions were completely disrespectful to him.

“Your actor pis sed me off, and there’s something wrong with your contract. Are you trying to beg met with this attitude?”

Grace laughed. “Who said I’m here to beg you?”

Colin was confused.

Grace shifted to a more comfortable position. Tom saw that she seemed to be very tired, so he stood behind her obediently and massaged her shoulders.

She enjoyed his thoughtful service for a while before continuing. “I’m here to ask for compensation.”

“What!? Compensation?

Colin almost laughed out loud. “It’s kind enough that I didn’t charge the Angle Group for loss of work time. How dare you ask me for compensation?

Grace cleared her throat and replied, “You said that there was something wrong with the contract you signed with the Angle Group, so you detained Tom and asked for a delay, didn’t you?”

“Yes.”

“But the contract was signed by your leader after repeated confirmation. It was not the Angle Group who forced you to sign it. Since you signed it after confirming it, it proves that there is nothing wrong with the contract. Now you take the initiative to provoke us over it. Who’s trying to take advantage of the loopholes in the law?

“You!”

Colin didn’t expect her to be so organized and sharp. He was about to refute when Grace snat ched away his discourse rights.

“The actors’ filming duration is listed in the contract. You deliberately didn’t let him go and wanted him to be a free laborer. He didn’t agree, so you threatened to destroy him.

“Not only are you shameless and immoral, but you also committed crimes of personal threats and illegal detention. The legal department of the Angle Group is not easy to deal with. Do you want to try

it out?”

Colin wanted to interrupt her several times, but he was stopped by Grace.

“Angle’s staff is not so vulnerable. Mr. Jones, you are indeed very famous in the film and television Industry, but unfortunately, our Angle Group is not satisfied with you. We won’t shoot your movie!”

Millionaire!

She got up and was about to leave with Tom.

Colin was angry. “You’d better think it through! You proposed to breach the contract, so you’ll have to pay a huge penalty fee!”

Grace turned around and glared at him. “Sorry, I won’t give you a penny. On the contrary, you’ll have to compensate us!”

What?

Not only did she break the contract, but she also asked him to compensate her!

What a strong tone!

“Aren’t you afraid that I’ll spread the news online and ruin the reputation of the Angle Group?”

Grace sneered. “Don’t worry. I’ve already informed the lawyers to sue you. You slandered us over the contract first. And then you detained my staff. It’s reasonable for me to rip up the contract. If you don’t believe me, you can give it a try!”

As soon as she finished speaking, Grace didn’t want to talk nonsense anymore and left with Tom.

Colin and the others wanted to stop them, but they were stopped by Beth. “Ms. Salen is very busy and doesn’t have time to argue with you. Mr. Jones, just wait for the court’s decision. If there are any problems, talk with our lawyers!TM

Grace returned to the car and asked the dejected Tom to sit in the passenger

r seat.

The handsome young man lowered his head like a puppy that had made a mistake, and he wasn’t as high-spirited as he usually was..

Grace was confused. It had only been a short time since she’d seen him. What was wrong with him?

“Did Old Mr. Walker punish you again? Did he hit you? Let me see.”

As she spoke, she reached out to tug at Tom’s pants.

Tom blushed and quickly pushed her back. “No! I’m an adult after all. Don’t I care about my reputation?”

Grace observed his expression and remembered that he walked very smoothly all the way back to the car. He didn’t seem to have been beaten up.

Moreover, he had been busy filming recently, and his attitude was quite serious. There was nothing wrong with it.

“The infamous devil incarnate of the Walker family suffered a loss at Colin Jones’s hands. What’s wrong with you?”

Tom was disappointed and muttered in a low voice, “I’m sorry. I just don’t think you liked me like that, so I’ve been trying to change. Grace, give me some more time. I’ll definitely become the kind of person you like.”

Grace listened to him carefully. She was shocked but didn’t agree with him.

“Why did you have to change? These are just my preferences. Is it worth it?”

Tom nodded with determination in his eyes. “As long as you like it, it’s worthy.”

“But I don’t like it.”

She frowned and said in a very serious tone, “Everyone is unique. You don’t have to deliberately change yourself and become humble for anyone. Only by being yourself can you best show your personality and charm.”

Back then, she had fallen in love with Edgar and naively thought that she could make Edgar fall in

Chapter 12

love with her by changing and sacrificing herself.

But what did she get in the end?

Humiliation, ridicule, despair, and torture!

However, she would get all these painful memories back from that man soon!

Because she had experienced that herself, she didn’t want her friends to get hurt again because of it.

Tom did not speak, his expression still full of dejection

Grace thought to herself, “He’s still too young. No matter what I say, perhaps he can’t understand much.”

She could only propose to have dinner with him to improve his mood.

Sure enough, Tom was still a child who had not grown up yet. He soon became happy again, and his eyes regained their usual luster.

After carefully putting on makeup, the two of them went to the most lively street in Frant City to have dinner.

After a busy day, Grace was so tired that she fell asleep as soon as she returned to the villa.

Patric felt sorry for his sister and asked Susan to quietly turn off her alarm clock.

Grace didn’t get up until noon. After washing up, she went straight to work in the Angle Group’s building.

Not long after she sat down, Adrain arrived.

After simple greetings, he got straight to the point.

“In the past few days, I’ve studied the market in Frant City and found a small real estate company that is very suitable for you to use as a springboard.”

As he spoke, he handed the company’s documents to Grace.

It was a company that was about to apply for bankruptcy protection. Because it was small in scale, few people knew about it, and the boss had a simple background.

It was indeed very suitable for her to buy and operate quietly.

“Thank you. You’ve really done me a big favor.”

Adrain blushed slightly. “Although I don’t know what you want to do, it’s fine as long as I can help

you.”

Grace was decisive. On the same day, she bought the property rights of that company and became its biggest shareholder and boss behind the scenes,

When they signed the agreement, the former boss was stunned.

“Although I don’t know why you insist on buying this company, you aren’t changing the name and won’t let the public know that you’re the boss behind the scenes. Why’s that?”
