Chapter 634 Vixen's Trick

"If I had insisted, it would prove that I had set this up." Xander massaged his temples. "But I think Mr. Fulton Senior is very happy with Ms. Lewis dating you," said Hazel. Xander's face darkened. He didn't express any opinions on that.

"He's already supporting Jake. When Jake returns from Pamore, this project will be a crucial step in his promotion. By then, there might be another director added to the Fulton Group's board."

Hazel was astonished. "Is it a dead end?"

"He doesn't know the difference between me going to Pamore and staying in Fulton Group. As long as I'm here, I won't let him have this opportunity.” It was already nighttime in Frenda when Xander left the company and went to Hestia's place.

When the housekeeper opened the door and saw him, she excitedly called out, "Mr. Xander, you're back."NôvelDrama.Org: owner of this content.

Xander raised a finger to signal her to keep it down. He then took off his coat. "Where's my mom?"

"She's in the living room, having a video call with Ms. Lewis."

As he walked over, he heard Grace's voice coming from the phone. "Aunt Hestia, I've gathered some supplements that are good for beauty and health. I'll send them to you tomorrow. You must take them."

In the video, Grace was bare-faced, and her hair was casually tied up in a bun.

Hestia smiled happily, satisfied with everything about Grace. "Sure. If it's from you, I'll definitely take it. Thank you." "I'm quite busy with work since it's the end of the year. I'll fly over to visit you whenever I have time.”

Before Hestia could respond, a voice suddenly came from behind her. "What about me? Aren't you gaing to visit me?” Hestia was startled. "You rascal, you walk so quietly!"

Grace also chuckled in surprise. "Have you finished work?”

Xander took the phone and sat next to Hestia. “Yeah. I saw Caleb's Instagram story. You met Victor?"

Grace was surprised that he had this meticulous side. She nodded.

"Yeah, Victor came to see me, so I went back to my house. I'm not used to you not being at Summitview Manor.” Suddenly, Victor also leaned over to greet Xander. "Hey, it's been so long since we had a meal together."

"I'll definitely treat you when I'm free.”

Satisfied with Xander's answer, Victor left the frame.

Since Hestia was present, Xander and Grace didn't say much and quickly ended the call.

After Hestia calmed down from her joyful mood, she asked, "You went to Fulton Group?”

"Yeah, Jake will handle the Aether Group project. I didn't contest it."

At these words, Hestia raised an eyebrow-Her tone became sharp as she askéd, "Why? That's a project you werked hard to secure. = Rayrtiond must be crazy to give it to hiss for no reason." to“ -

om." Xafider picked up an orange from thetable. "Dad and the board are already unhappy with me. IfP insist-on leaving Fulton Group! wont e able to secure my pasition as-president.” Content belangs to -

He had originally planned to stay in Pamore and remotely handle Fulton Group's affairs. But now, with Jake gaining support, it would be difficult to restrain him.

“Even so, you shouldn't give Jake—"

"Priscilla wasn't feeling well last week and was hospitalized for two days. Dad went to visit her. I heard he even took care of her." At the mention of Priscilla, Hestia closed her eyes.

After a moment, she said, "I can't and won't learn that vixens tricks."

Sometimes, men were like that. The more they appreciated capable and beautiful women. the more they preferred weak and obedient women by their side.

"Priscilla has been able to control Dad for so-many years. It's not just becausé she has a son, but also- because you always give him a bad attitude. She takes advantage of that." -
