Having visited the spa resort a few times, Josiah was relatively familiar with the route. As he was Skylar’s superior, she waited for him to start his vehicle first before she drove out with Maverick and the rest in the

He was, after all, the chairman with the most shares in Thorne Constructions and Energies. Intimidating a few unsettled executives wasn’t an issue for him.

Seeing that Lysander acting as if she hadn’t heard Howard, Josiah took advantage of the smooth road condition and subtly nudged her under the guise of adjusting the navigation system. The discreet action. went completely unnoticed by the elders in the back seat.

Only then did Lysander snap back to reality, awkwardly responding, “Oh… there’s no need. I informed. everyone earlier that we should focus on having fun since it’s a year–end team–building event. Those who don’t wish to participate can opt for a cash alternative from the logistics department. The ones you’re referring to might not even show up.
