In the Lap of Luxury

Chapter 451 Childhood Friends

"Alright, since that's settled, I'll have someone draft a contract. If there are no issues, we can sign it."

Lydia agreed and said, "Okay. VERE is about to launch a new series, and all the jewelry from this series will be exclusively sponsored for the celebrities of Amirate Corporation." Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.

Grace thought momentarily and said, "Give the sponsorship to Caleb and Kayla. After all, they are the only two celebrities under our company with some popularity at the moment."

Lydia looked away and hummed in agreement.

"Alright. The jewelry for any event in this quarter will be handled by us."

"I'll have their managers discuss it with you directly."

"Okay."

After finalizing their discussion, Grace personally escorted Lydia downstairs. Just as they reached the lobby, they bumped into Kayla.

Kayla's gaze fell on Lydia, and she promptly greeted Grace, "Hello, Ms. Lewis!"

Seeing this, Grace introduced them. "Kayla, this is Ms. York from VERE Jewelry, your upcoming jewelry sponsor."

Kayla hadn't expected Lydia to be the owner of VERE, and surprise flashed in her eyes.

After all, VERE was a well-known jewelry brand, both domestically and internationally. Known for its original designs and fashion-forward pieces, it was a favorite among young people.

Suddenly, Kayla's previous disregard disappeared, and she actively greeted Lydia. "Ms. York! I'm Kayla Green, a celebrity under Amirate Corporation. I look forward to your support in the future."

Lydia nodded, her politeness tinged with indifference. She didn't engage in further conversation with Kayla but turned to Grace instead. "Gracie, I'll head back now. I'll have my staff come over for the follow-up work."

"Okay."

After watching Lydia leave, Kayla couldn't help but ask curiously, "Ms. Lewis, you seem to be very close with Ms. York."

Grace casually mentioned, "We're childhood friends. Of course, we're close."

Kayla was taken aback. She hadn't expected Lydia to be friends with Grace.

No wonder Caleb's attitude toward Lydia was different. It was because of Grace. In that case, Kayla had been overthinking.

"It's indeed fortunate to have such a close friend," Kayla remarked.

Grace hummed in response. Just then, her phone rang, and she quickly pulled out her phone. Her eyes lit up, and she answered without hesitation.

"Xander?"

Kayla noticed a sudden change in Grace's demeanor. The person calling must be important for the phone call to affect Grace's emotions.

Kayla secretly sized up Grace.

Xander stood outside the Amirate Corporation building, his gaze fixed in Grace's direction.

"Xander, why aren't you speaking?" Grace sounded anxious when she didn't receive an answer.

Xander smiled, and he spoke in a deep voice. "Turn around and look."

Grace turned and immediately spotted Xander not too far away. Without any hesitation, she ran toward him.
