In the Lap of Luxury

Chapter 413 It Can't Be Yvonne

The two of them exchanged glances and said simultaneously, "The Quine family?"

"The Quine family!"

There was a flash of surprise in Grace's eyes. "Xander, it looks like we had the same thought."

"Just now, the fake Jessica kept going on about a billion dollars, and it's not the first time she's emphasized this amount. Only the Quine family have had a conflict with us over a billion dollars. There's no one else."

In a deep, low voice, Xander analyzed the situation. The past incident between Grace and Richard over the latter's billion-dollar finger ring had spread like wildfire through the upper class society. As a result, the Quine family's reputation had suffered a great blow.

After that there had been the issue with Yvonne. Now, the Quines, who had once been one of the leading families in Pamore, were completely bankrupt! Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

This series of events were all connected to Grace in some way.

Therefore, the Quine family was most likely behind the plagiarism issue.

"Plus, I've already contacted Aaron, and he hasn't managed to find out anything about any of the Lewis family's opponents meddling in this incident.

"So we can surmise that the fake Jessica must have some connection with the Quine family."

Xander had guessed the same thing as Grace.

"We can at least confirm one thing. She's not Yvonne." After all, this fake Jessica had taken over Jessica's identity five years ago.

"Does Yvonne have a sister?"

Grace's question got right to the heart of the matter.

If this fake Jessica was connected to the Quine family and was so hostile toward her, then she must be one of the Quines!

It seemed that Yvonne wasn't the Quine family's only heiress.

"I'll get someone to investigate right now. We'll look into all the women from the Quine family in the past three generations who are around 25 years old this year."

But Grace said, "Xander, if she's one of the Quines, then there's no need to investigate anything. I think there's someone who will definitely know who she is."

Xander's lips curled into a smile. "Richard?"

Grace was amused, and there was a trace of mirth in her eyes. "Xander, can you read my mind? I can't hide anything from you."

Xander looked at her fondly and said, "I'll get someone to look into Richard right now."

Grace murmured in agreement and nodded.

His subordinates were very efficient, and within an hour they had found out about Richard's recent situation.

Xander handed Grace the information. "Since the Quine family went bankrupt, Richard has been working at a car wash to make ends meet."

Grace raised her eyebrows, and she looked at the figure in the photograph, who seemed to have aged considerably. She was surprised. "The ultimate villain has been reduced to this?"

"Even so, he deserved what he got." Xander was never compassionate toward the weak. In any case, Richard was in this situation today because of his own doing.

"Let's go and meet him."

The two of them exchanged glances, and Grace told the driver to get the car ready.

The luxurious Rolls-Royce Phantom stopped at the entrance to the car wash, and the window rolled down to reveal Xander's perfectly chiseled side profile.

"Gracie, this is it."

Grace looked up, and she immediately spotted Richard, who was in his uniform and was hard at work.

At that moment, he was washing the hood of the car in front of him with practiced movements. It was a stark contrast to how arrogant he had been a few months ago.

"This … is Richard?" Her voice carried a note of disbelief.

"Let's go and have a look. Perhaps we can find out something from him." With that, she opened the door and got out of the car, heading straight for the hunched figure.
