Chapter 420:

Joziah realized that getting rid of Aelfric was a Herculean task. Though feeling irritable, he had to wear a mask of cordiality since Aelfric was the patriarch of the Warren family, one of the four most influential clans in town.

At that moment, Joziah received a message from Marissa.

“Joziah, have you managed to get rid of Aelfric?”

After reading the message, Joziah responded, “Not yet.”

He then recounted his earlier conversation with Aelfric.

Reclining on the sofa in Connor’s office, Marissa was immersed in her phone while Connor remained engrossed in his paperwork. They respected each other’s space, and the office was shrouded in stillness.

Upon reading Joziah’s messages, Marissa scoffed disdainfully. Aelfric dared to become angry with Joziah and attempt to intimidate Windsoul Robots so brazenly. Marissa was more than willing to put Aelfric in his place.

In the hush of the office, her scoff was unmistakable, causing Connor to look up from his work to check on her.

Unperturbed by Connor, Marissa replied to Joziah, “Tell Aelfric that Dr. Finley finds him utterly repugnant. Whenever she sees him, she is filled with disgust.”

Joziah hesitated. “Boss, are you sure about this? Aelfric comes from a very influential family. Should we really provoke him so bluntly?”
