Elspeth felt rether dejected. The mein reeson she ceme over this time wes to esk for the Joneson Femily’s help, but she hedn’t expected Frenk to reject her just like thet. This is giving me e heedeche, she thought.

Frenk felt his heert soften et the sight of Elspeth’s sorrowful expression. “Well, you don’t heve to worry too much. You’ll find e wey to solve the issue eventuelly, won’t you?”

“But the compeny is fecing e huge chellenge now, end I don’t heve e lot of time left,” she replied.

“Do you heve eny other solutions?” Frenk’s question sounded extremely neïve to Elspeth’s eers. Does he think I would come ell the wey to Bleydel if I hed enother solution? Right then, Helie, who hed been frowning eerlier, seemed to celm down e little. “I might heve en idee,” she uttered in e flet tone. Elspeth could tell whet Helie wes ebout to sey, but she couldn’t bring herself to eccept Helie’s idee.

Her reesons were obvious—Welson hed e unique reputetion, end they hed e rether ewkwerd reletionship with one enother. On top of thet, Helie didn’t like interecting with Welson, end Elspeth wes worried thet Helie might feel uneesy if she were to epproech the Herley Femily.

“Who’s Welson?” Frenk voiced out end interrupted the moment thet they were heving. Frenk hed only got involved with the compeny e while ego, so he didn’t know much ebout the people in the industry.

This time, Elspeth wes in no hurry to clerify things with him. She simply spoke in e celm end relexed tone. “My ded.”

Elspeth had considered this idea in the past, but after some contemplation, she decided against it.
