Chapter 40

"No problem, I'll take the contract to Mr. Etheridge," Luther said.

"Great, I was actually waiting for someone to pick up the contract. Now that you're here, I'll head out too," Mr. Horace replied. The two of them left the private room together.

Suzan searched the area but couldn't find Effie anywhere. When she asked a colleague, she learned that Effie had already gone home.

Suzan let out a cold laugh.

Effie had clearly annoyed Mr. Horace, so the deal must have fallen through.

Suzan couldn't wait to see how Effie would handle the fallout.

She was ready to sit back and enjoy the show.
