Brendan smiled upon hearing that. “There’s no need to hurry. I already arranged an office for you. You can take a breather first. I will ask Molly to bring you over later.”

As soon as he finished speaking, someone knocked on the door. “Mr. Griffith, Miss Lawson is here.”

Brendan’s expression changed when he heard her name and he immediately became more business-like. “Ask her to wait for me in the meeting room. I’ll be right there.”

“Noted, Mr. Griffith.”

Seeing that he had other businesses to attend to, Elise quickly got up. “Since you are busy, just ask Molly to bring me over.”

“Alright. I’ll do that.”

After coming out of the office, Molly quickly said, “Miss Sinclair, let’s head over there now.”
