Chapter 95

Nora stiffened slightly, but her expression remained neutral.

Megan continued oblivious to the tension her words created.

“She just opened her own company and apparently worked her entire team past two in the morning on their very first project.”

Leo let out a sharp scoff, his lips curling in a smirk.

“That project of hers? I heard about it. It’s nothing impressive. If she had to keep her employees up that late, it only means she’s incompetent.”

Megan chuckled, lowering her voice slightly as if sharing a secret. “Well, maybe she isn’t the most capable, but she’s certainly lucky. The project’s progress has been slow, but Arnold felt bad for her. So, he personally went to her company last night to help out.”

Nora’s expression didn’t change, but her hands clenched briefly before she forced them to relax.

Megan, ever the gossip, leaned in a little closer, her voice barely above a whisper.

“Actually, rumor has it that Arnold and Linda pulled an all–nighter together in the upstairs office. They even slept there.”
