Chapter 61 Alice was so furious her chest heaved with every sharp breath .
She shot a murderous re at Grace , who stood in the middle of the crowd Eshanwas right next to Grace .
His presence was imposing and ke cold .
No one dared to stand in front of him , so they all lingered behind .
With Grace at his side , they looked like the preci pull .
Alices hand , which was hanging at her side , slowly curled into a fist .
She could taste blood in her mouth .
She had once sworn to take away every ounce of happiness that belonged to Grace , but now , all anyone could do was sing Graces praises while she was nothing more than a bitter fool on the ΗΠΕΙ Quentin stood beside her , keeping up his as off importance as he waited for race toe over and acknowledge him .
But the photo session was nearly done , the reporters were parking up and Grace still hadnt spared him on much as a nce .
Quentin was on the verge of losing his cool when someone asked , Quentin , arent you going to say something to Grace ? What is she doing here representing Henderson Group ? If she hade on behall of Lambert Group , you wouldve had this bid in the bag ! You must be out of your mind for not valuing such a capable daughter and even letting her work for thepetition Hearing that , Quentin was so furious he almost choked the just couldnt wrap his head around how Grace , who used to beplete
ly useless , had changed so much .
And to make things worse , Alice the daughter he had put all his faith in had made aplete mess of things this time .
He stepped forward , ready to say something to Grace and maybe get some face time with the officials .
In business , politics sometimes yed a role .
People had to show aspect to the right people if they wanted theirpany to thrive .
Brookfield might be a small ce , but it had produced some heavy hitters who now held high ranking government positions .
They werent people he could afford to ignore But he had barely taken a step when Alices choked voice reached his ears .
Dad , am just a stepping stone for Grace to climb even bigher ? Quentinfo and turned around sharply What are you talking abour ? Isnt it obvious ? I was the one who thought of joining the Fam Support Project , and Grace past tagged along , I pulled the all nighter on the live stream and came up with a way to keep the apples fresh .
But in the end , all the credit goes to her .
Never mind .
I guess theres no point trying topete with her As she spoke , the tumed away like she had lost all hope .
Quentin used after her .
Are you saying Grace took credit for your work? So what if she did she just threw money at these farmers to win the over .
I gave her a million dors not too long ago .
She has probably burned through all of it by now .
But dont say anything .
Everyone sees her as a hero right now .
If word got out that she bribed them , it woulddag the entire Lambert family through the mad Quentin was fuming .
No wonder the farmers had weed Grace with open arms .
She had used the Lamber familys money to buy their support , all to benefit Henderson Group .
She was nothing but a traitor to her own family , a disgrace of a daughter ! The prison who had first called quentin over saw he was about to leave and asked , Arent you going to say something to your daughter ? Quentins expression darkened with irritation .
I dont have a daughter like that .
Shes a shame to this Lamily .
The pay was stunned .
How could Grace be a shame to the family when she had pulled everything off assaly ? He saw that Quentin and Alice were already in the car and found himself at As a father , Quentin hadnt offered Grace mach as a word of congrattions .
Instead , he treated her like she was beneath him .
That had to sting Bur Grace didnt seem to case the slightest Once she confirmed that Henderson Group had secured the bid, she turned to Ethan and said , Congrattions , Mr.
Henderson .
A flicker of amplément shed in Ethans eyes like a passing breeze , leaving tipples in its wake .
