Chapter 61 Alice was so furious her chest heaved with every sharp breath .

She shot a murderous glare 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 .noveldrama

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 to come 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 glance .

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 had come 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 the competition Hearing that , Quentin was so furious he almost choked the just couldnt wrap his head around how Grace , who used to be complete

ly useless , had changed so much .

And to make things worse , Alice the daughter he had put all his faith in had made a complete 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 played a role .

People had to show aspect to the right people if they wanted their company to thrive .

Brookfield might be a small place , 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 .

I gave her a million dollars 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 welcomed 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 .
