Chapter 208

Sylvie arrived and strode straight up to Esmeralda, her hand extended as if there'd never been any bad blood between them. "Let's hope this partnership goes off without a hitch this time."

Esmeralda gestured to Elodie, raising an eyebrow. "You'll want to discuss the details with Elodie here. You've got the wrong person."

She didn't bother shaking Sylvie's hand.

Sylvie's fingers curled back, just a hint, and with a quick glance at Elodie, she retracted her hand. "Alright then. Let's get started."

Sylvie still didn't look up, just kept turning the pages. "And you're demanding a prototype in two weeks. Don't you think that's a bit much?"

She didn't bother addressing Elodie's question head-on.
