Chapter 97 Why Can’t You Stop Thinking About Alexander?

 

Lily chuckled when she realized that she could no longer conceal her actual intentions. “It’s true that I fancy Mr. Griffith, but I’m afraid I don’t know him that well yet. I was hoping that you could tell me a little about Mr. Griffith’s interests and hobbies, Miss Sare.”

 

 

Elise responded with a polite smile. “You must be kidding, Miss Lily. I’m nothing more than a subordinate—I don’t think I’m at liberty to discuss anything related to my boss’s matters. If you don’t have any other orders, I’ll step outside now, Miss Lily. I’ll come in once you’re done.”

 

Right as Elise was about to leave, Lily called out to her once more. “It seems like you’re not willing to tell me anything about Mr. Griffith, Miss Sare. Regardless, I think it would be a shame if you were to just walk out without listening to the rest of what I’d like to say.”

 

“What else would you like to say, Miss Lily?” Elise tried to remain as patient as possible while Lily quietly scanned her from head to toe before speaking. “Give me an amount! As long as it’s something within my capabilities, I’ll give you whatever you want. I can agree to keep it a secret—your boss will never know about this.”

 

 

 

There wasn’t even a slight change in Elise’s expression as she spoke. “Apart from our work, I don’t think there’s much to be said between both of us, Miss Lily. I’m sorry, but I think I should leave now.” This time, Elise no longer hesitated—she turned and strode right out of the room. Lily was left alone in the water, her expression one of fury as she glared at Elise’s receding figure.

 

 

Elise let out a sigh after she stepped away from the hot springs. Phew. I finally managed to get rid of Lily. She’s a pretty exotic woman, though. Other women might think of it as shameful to speak of such matters, but Lily didn’t seem reluctant to do it at all. After stepping away from the hot springs, Elise walked to a garden opposite the area and sat down on one of the swings there.
