Aurora Walton and Lucas Carter novel Chapter 1049

Chapter 1049

Other than that, she asked for nothing else.

Right now, her priority was avenging her daughter, and since Julian was the one responsible, there was no need to take it out on anyone else.

But even so, Albert’s behavior still angered her.

“So what’s your plan?”

Grace glanced over coldly, standing with rows of bodyguards behind her, radiating authority.

With just one look, Albert’s knees nearly gave out.

He quickly shook his head. “My plan? Of course I’m handing him over to you.

“If he made a mistake, then he has to face the consequences and be prepared to pay the price.”

Grace let out a sharp snort. “Nice words. So where is he? Don’t tell me you’ve somehow forgotten that

today is the third day?”

Albert quickly wiped the sweat from his forehead and let out a few dry laughs. “How could I forget? It’s

just that…”

He didn’t know how to finish the sentence.

Even to him, the situation was unbelievable.

Let alone to someone like Grace, who already held a grudge.

Seeing him stammer, Grace’s patience wore thin. “If you have something to say, say it. What’s the point of putting on this little show?

“I don’t have time to waste on you people. The Hayes family has already wasted enough of mine.”

Grace had always believed that time was money.

And the time she’d lost on the Hayeses–who knew how long it would take to earn that back.

A corporation like the Waltons measured income by the minute.

That was why the poor stayed poor, and the rich only got richer.

Because their standards and expectations weren’t the same.

Their environments and quality of life all stemmed from that difference.

Albert scratched his head. He genuinely didn’t know how to explain this to Grace.

“It’s just… what I’m about to say might sound a little far–fetched. I’m worried you won’t believe me.”

In the end, Albert still said the words.

Hearing that, Grace raised an eyebrow. She found Albert’s way of speaking absolutely laughable now.

“If you think I came all this way just to play games with you, then do I look like I’m joking right now?”

Grace sat down on the sofa without any courtesy, arms crossed as she stared straight at Albert. “Don’t

worry, I don’t have time to waste on you.

“We’re all businesspeople. You, of all people, should understand that time is money.”

Albert nodded. Of course, he understood that principle.

But this situation was just too bizarre.
