“What’s the matter? Alice, have you heard about Tanner West?” Although Alice only had a subtle reaction, Lawrence still caught it.

“I’ve heard of him while studying in Cliaria.” She forcefully swallowed the food in her mouth. However, she did not want to lie to him, but her identity as Tanner West still needed to be kept a secret because it would play a pivotal part in her plan to deal with the Yeager Family. Also, they might not believe her if she said she was Tanner.

“Really? Why don’t you tell us if he’s as brilliant as people say?” Lawrence had always been easy-going, so he casually conversed with Alice.

“I’ve only heard of him, so I’m unsure.” Albeit guilty, she could not tell them outright that she was the Tanner West that Lawrence wanted to invite into the company.

Even if she did, they would have to believe in her.

“I heard that he has never lost a case in his hand or any project negotiations he was responsible for. Others even dubbed him the business prodigy.” It was obvious that he admired Tanner because he was not shy with his compliments.

Yet, it left Alice unable to continue the topic. If she concurred, that would be bragging about herself, and she was not that shameless.

“I also heard that he’s very young and only in his twenties, but he already has a seven-year-old son. Alice, have you heard about that while you were in Cliaria?” Lawrence never put up a pretense, so his conversations with Alice were casual.

Gazing down, she could not help but praise secretly, As one would expect from the renowned Lawrence Knight. He’s so thorough when asking questions.

Back then, many knew Apollo was Tanner’s son, especially people from Cliaria. Therefore, Alice was not surprised that Lawrence had found out about that. Not wanting to lie, she pondered for a moment and nodded. “Yes.”

Apollo was Tanner’s son, but she was Tanner, so Apollo was her child, no matter how one would put it. So,
