Chapter 226 There’s No Lead
Aaron looked at Grace. “Grace, Luke just called.”
At the mention of Luke, Grace guessed what it was about. “Is it about what happened at the fashion show?”
Aaron nodded. “We found the person who damaged the clothes. He admitted to entering the backstage area with a pair of scissors and cutting the clothe
Grace was furious. “Anything else?”
Aaron continued, “I investigated him. He’s an orphan with no family or ties. He had received a million– dollar transfer the day before the incident, but we can’t trace the origin of the transfer.
“And he’s tight–l*pped. He’s only admitted to his actions and won’t reveal who instructed him
to do them.”
Upon hearing this, Grace roughly understood the situation. “So there’s no other information available?”
Aaron hummed.
“The other party is obviously hiding in the shadows as they target you. It’s hard to guard against. Think carefully. Have you offended anyone recently?”
Grace shrugged. “I don’t know. But there are quite a few people who can’t stand to see me doing well.”
At her words, Aaron’s expression turned uglier. “Could it be because of Benjamin?”
Yvonne was a good example.
“Or the Quine family?”
Yet Grace shook her head. “Now that the Quine family has fallen, they probably can’t easily come up with such a large sum of money.”
Grace’s reasoning made sense./But apart from this, Aaron couldn’t think of anything else.
“Aaron, since he has admitted it, let’s handle it according to the rules of our family.”
Aaron understood what she meant. “If someone provokes our family, they naturally have to bear the consequences. I’ll take care of this.”
Grace nodded reassuringly.
However, Aaron was still worried about her. “Gracie, Pamore is a dangerous place. Grandpa and I are really worried about you being there alone.
“How about leaving everything in Amirate behind and returning to the headquarters here?”
Grace immediately rejected his suggestion. “I can’t, Aaron. I made a bet with Director Walker. I have to improve the company’s performance within a year. If I can’t do it, I can leave then. It’s too early now.”
“But” Aaron wanted to say something more, but Grace interrupted him. This is from NôvelDrama.Org.
“Aaron, I know you’re worried about me. But I can’t give up halfway. How would others see me in the future?
“Also, I’m a Lewis. If the news about me giving up so easily goes out, it would be a disgrace to our family.”
This statement left Aaron speechless. “Gracie.”
“It’s okay, Aaron. Don’t worry. I’ll take care of myself. Really, just give me a year.
“If I lose the bet with Director Walker after a year, you won’t have to say anything. I’ll come back on my own.”
Aaron couldn’t win against Grace.
But he absolutely couldn’t let her take risks with her life, so he compromised. “You can go back, but you must accept the b*dyguard I’ve arranged for you
Grace blinked, hesitating for a moment.
Seeing that Aaron was unhappy enough as it was, Grace simply agreed. “Okay, Aaron, I promise you. It’s just a b*dyguard. It can put both you and Gran win.”
