In the Lap of Luxury

Chapter 397 A Change in Attitude

Benjamin shook his head. He felt like he was going crazy.

Then, he said, "Ms. Landon, I don't care what your motives or plans are. I only have one request. Do not harm Grace."

Jessica burst into a fit of maniacal laughter, sending chills down his back. "It's too late. Unless … "

Jessica's gaze was fixed on Benjamin. Her following words shocked him to the core.

"Unless you marry me! Then, I might consider showing some mercy to Grace. Otherwise, I won't let her off easily."

Benjamin sneered, "You think you can threaten me?"

His calm eyes flashed with fury, and he waved at Larry. Larry stepped forward and handed something to Jessica.

"Ms. Landon, I intended to resolve this peacefully with you, but it seems I was wrong to think that would be possible. Seeing that you're so confident, you must not have expected me to obtain these documents."

Jessica was puzzled. She didn't understand what Benjamin was implying.

She snatched the documents from Larry's hand, and her face fell dramatically after seeing the content.

She panicked instantly. "Benjamin, how did you get these?"

Benjamin cut straight to the chase and said, "I've seen enough of the pot calling the kettle black. This evidence is enough to prove you slandered Grace and ruin your reputation in the fashion

industry for many years.

"If I were you, I would choose to settle this quietly. Otherwise, I'll hand this evidence over to the media."

Benjamin's words were dripping with intimidation, and Jessica couldn't help but feel a chill down her spine. His methods remained as ruthless as ever.

However, she smiled. She ignored Benjamin's threat and tucked her hair behind her ears, remaining calm and composed.

"Mr. Hawkins, I would like to discuss something with you privately."

But Benjamin wasn't interested. "You can save whatever you want to say for the police."

Jessica shook her head and continued, "Mr. Hawkins, rest assured. I will admit defeat if you insist on using this evidence against me after hearing what I have to say."

With that, Jessica stepped forward and whispered something in Benjamin's ear.

In an instant, Benjamin's face turned pale. Frozen in place, he looked at Jessica with a strange look.

Jessica was very satisfied with his response, and she smiled smugly.

"Mr. Hawkins, you can go back. Leave these documents to me." With that, Jessica took the documents from Larry's hand.

Larry wanted to say something, but Benjamin interjected, "Give her everything!"

This change in his attitude left Larry puzzled and dumbfounded. "Mr. Hawkins, what about Ms. Lewis?"

Benjamin clenched his teeth and repeated, "Give her the evidence."

Even though he didn't understand Benjamin's intentions, Larry had no choice. He reached into his pocket, took out a USB drive, and handed it to Jessica along with all the documents.

Jessica smiled with satisfaction. This material belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

"Thank you, Mr. Hawkins. You can go now. I won't see you off."

Benjamin looked at her with a mix of emotions. He said nothing else and turned to leave. Larry hurriedly followed him.
