Chapter 98 Second Plane Crash
Caleb calmly instructed John, “Ask them to focus on the tournament and look forward to the bonus,”
He then hung up the phone.
“Since when did you invest in an esports team, Caleb?” Grace asked curiously, sipping her cocktail.
“Since I’m terrible at playing games, I always lose, and my teammates make fun of me. So in
frustration, I spent two billion dollars to assemble a team.”
Caleb continued, “I just don’t believe that you can’t buy talent with money.”
Smiling, he swayed in his gaming chair. “This team is yours from now on. I’m giving it to you today.”
“Well, thank you for that!” Grace replied with a wink.
Just then, an unknown number called her, so she rejected the call without thinking. Surprisingly, the
caller didn’t give up and called a second time.
“Hello?”
“Grace, you know how powerful I am now. Return the thumb ring to me and apologize to Yvonne.”
Richard’s tone was arrogant.
“By the way, how does it feel to be insulted by everyone on the internet?”
With a mocking smirk, Grace said, “Is that all you’ve got?”
She continued, “Given that you’ve been dominating the business world for decades, I thought you

“But it seems all you know are underhanded tactics.
“Cheating at Craps, using thugs to threaten me, spreading rumors All your tricks are just those of a
local bully. Do you really have the reputation you claim?”
“My tricks may not be something to show off, but they’re enough to make sure you won’t survive in
Pamore.” Richard sneered.
“This is your last chance. Return the thumb ring to me, and if I’m in a good mood, I might have the
media go easy on you. But if you still don’t give it back…”
He sounded as though he was holding back some powerful move.
“What will you do if I don’t give it back?”

“In a few days, the chairman of Lewis Corporation–Amirate’s headquarters–will celebrate his 70th
birthday.
“Aaron might like you and not mind these rumors. But as his grandfather, Harold will certainly not
accept you into the family.”
Richard continued, “If I speak up in front of Harold, let’s see how long you can stay as a general
manager!”
Hearing that, Grace wanted to laugh out loud. “I would welcome that. Please be sure to tell Mr. Lewis
Senior. I’ll be waiting.”
Her grandfather was too busy to pay attention to someone as insignificant as the Quine family’s
patriarch, let alone listen to what this local bully had to say.
“Hmph! Just you wait!” Richard prepared to hang up.
“Hold on,” Grace suddenly said. “This is also the last chance I will give you.
“Make Yvonne apologize and admit to everything, and I’ll make sure you won’t end up crying too
miserably.”
“In your dreams!”
After a furious roar, Richard hung up the phone.
Caleb, who had been listening, shook his head. “He’s too arrogant, making up just anything. Gracie,
teach him a lesson.”
“It’s time to find a good place for his diamond thumb ring.” Grace smiled slyly.

A few days later, at Darai Airport’s terminal, the shrill sirens went off.
Grace was wrapped in a blanket given to her by the rescue team, but even so, she couldn’t shake off
the chill running through her b*dy.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe looked toward the tarmac not far from the terminal, where a plane that was nearly falling apart was
engulfed in flames. Ambulances arrived one after another.
She had never imagined that she would experience her second plane crash.
The plane’s engine had caught fire at an altitude of 60 miles from Darai Airport, and the airport had
decided to make an emergency landing.
However, when the plane had been just 30 feet from the ground, it had lost control again and crashed
directly onto the tarmac.
At the terminal, Grace clenched her hands tightly, trying to remain calm. Fortunately, she
#15 BONUS
In the face of accidents, human strength truly felt microscopic.
The rescue team members ran around the terminal. Updates on the progress of the rescue operations
could be heard occasionally from their walkie–talkies.
“How many people are still missing?”
“We haven’t been able to confirm the numbers yet.”
“Hurry up! Someone is injured over there. Bring the stretcher!”
Grace couldn’t help but feel a sense of déjà vu.
