In the Lap of Luxury by Unsweetened Chestnuts

"Despite the improvement in our performance, the after-sales issues in e-
commerce remain our top priority. All departments need to put in more effort to identify and resolve these problems," Grace said calmly, feeling a bit parched.
Aaron handed her a glass of water.
She mouthed "thank you" to him.
Luke waited until everyone finished reporting before speaking, "As the end of the year approaches, it's time to arrange the annual meeting for Amirate Corporation. Ms. Lewis, how do you think we should proceed this year?"
When Grace had been with the Hawkins family, she had handled many annual meetings, most of which were very dull.
They mainly involved preparing the programs and buttering up to leaders. She thought it was boring, so she suggested, "Since we've done so well this year, why not throw a party and let everyone have some fun?"
The video conference immediately buzzed with excitement, "That's a great idea!"
"What's the theme?" someone asked.
Grace pondered for a moment and said, "Let's inform the employees and let them vote."
After the meeting ended, she looked up and saw Aaron looking at her with a smirk.
"You're quite democratic," he commented.
Grace smiled.
At that moment, Aaron's secretary entered.
"Fortress is fully booked tonight."
Aaron tilted his head and asked, "What did Xander do?"
Grace also perked up her ears. News of Xander sending gifts to Fortress had quickly spread throughout the city, with the promise that Fortress would be packed tonight.
She had inquired about it, but he had mysteriously avoided the question, saying she would find out later.
The secretary seemed embarrassed and answered, "I couldn't find out."
"Fortress wouldn't disclose it. The gift is just a gimmick. He's making such a big fuss to attract those high-ranking officials and dignitaries," Grace explained.
The secretary nodded in understanding. "But those people are afraid of the Iverson family's power. They probably won't be easily lured."
"There are others who club here. Those who fear the Iverson family might not go, but those who respect the Fulton Group would," Grace pointed out. Fulton Group was clearly ahead now.
Grace found it amusing. Xander's tactics were clumsy, but they were effective.
Aaron caught her amused expression and tapped his fingers on the table.
"Did you win over a hundred thousand dollars playing with Mrs. Jones and the other ladies yesterday?"
She was surprised. "How do you know about it?"
Aaron had people all over this place.
He chuckled and said, "Uncle Raymond called me."
That explained it. Grace suddenly

"What are you thinking?"
In fact, Raymond hadn't mentioned any of that. Aaron had only mentioned that Harold was looking for a girlfriend for Victor and Raymond said that he had a suitable candidate.
Just from this sentence, Aaron inferred that Grace had met Priscilla.
Grace choked on her water, almost spitting it out.
"Victor won't go. He's not interested in these things."
"It's an invitation from an elder. Victor should attend out of courtesy," Aaron said
sternly.
Grace ignored him.
"Uncle Raymond helped you last time. Don't be stubborn," Aaron said in a low
voice.

"I'll try to persuade Victor to show up," Grace said reluctantly.

The man outside trembled, avoiding his eyes.
"Mr. Iverson, the manager of Fortress asked me to give this to you."
