Chapter 352 Why Was There a Woman in Your Bed

Grace made a soft sound of acknowledgment, feeling an inexplicable sense of peace at that

moment.

In just two minutes, she saw Xander striding toward her.

By the time he reached her, she could clearly see a thin layer of sweat on his forehead.” Xander, did I

disturb you?”

When Xander felt the distance she put between them, he took her hand and walked toward the

company.

“Gracie, when did you become so polite with me? You can come find me at any time. It’s never a

disturbance.”

Grace smiled. She could feel the warmth in his palm, and at this moment, that warmth was genuine.

The two of them walked through the lobby on the first floor, garnering various curious gazes. Grace felt

the scrutiny but was surprisingly unembarrassed. Instead, she felt inexplicably reassured.

Inside the elevator, Grace explained, “Aunt Hestia told me it’s your birthday today, so I came

Xander turned to her. “Why didn’t you tell me in advance?”

Tell him in advance? So she wouldn’t see the scene in the office?

Grace’s emotions instantly plummeted. Xander clearly sensed her change in mood, so he asked,

“What’s wrong?”

Grace shook her head. “Nothing.”

She turned her face away but couldn’t help asking, “Xander, what’s your relationship with your former

secretary?”

“Former secretary?” Xander frowned.

“You mean Ms. Snow?”

Grace nodded.

Seriously, Xander replied, “I’m her boss, and she’s my employee.”

Grace acknowledged it with an “oh”, but her expression clearly said she didn’t believe it.

Xander became more curious. “Why are you suddenly asking about this?”

As the elevator doors slowly opened, Grace looked at the busy scene in the office, Without a word, she

walked out first.

Puzzled, Xander quickly followed.

“Ms. Lewis, Mr. Fulton.”

Under everyone’s watchful eyes, the two entered the president’s office one after the other, and Xander

closed the door.

“Gracie, what’s wrong?”

As soon as he spoke, his gaze fell on the cake on the desk. He remembered Grace’s words in the

elevator, and a hint of joy appeared in his eyes. He couldn’t help walking toward the desk.

However, Grace stopped him. “Wait.”

She stood in front of him, looking a bit sulky as she pouted, which made her incredibly

adorable.

Smiling, Xander stared at her. “Gracie, did you bring the cake?”

Grace neither confirmed nor denied it.

But Xander guessed the answer from her face. Suddenly, he thought of something and asked, ”

Did you come up

earlier?”

Grace snorted. “Yes. I came up earlier and saw something I shouldn’t have seen.”

Catching the key point in her words, Xander narrowed his eyes.

He approached, and the distance between them was only four inches. They could clearly feel each

other’s presence. “So, what did you see?”

“I…”

Grace stuttered for a long time without saying anything. Finally, she pointed to a small lounge nearby

and said, “Why was there a woman in your bed?”

A woman?

“You saw a woman in my bed?”

Grace looked stubborn, but Xander immediately understood. “Was that person Linda?”
