Chapter 210

Elodie stared at Jason's reply on the screen.

She took a slow sip of warm water, steady as ever, then typed her response:

[Understood.]

She closed out of the chat with Jason and went straight to the Nexus Analytics project group.

She didn't bother checking the member list.

She didn't send Jarrod a friend request.

Instead, she directly tagged both Jarrod and Sylvie in the group chat:

[Mr. Silverstein, if there are any questions regarding VistaLink Technologies' requirements, please clarify. Ms. Fielding believes concerns can be discussed directly with our team. Please, Nexus Analytics, let's not silently delay progress.] With this project, Elodie had no patience for drawn-out timelines.

She just wanted problems solved quickly and precisely.

Yet, even after tagging them, she waited in silence. No response came from the other side.

Not that she was surprised.

She glanced at the clock. Twenty minutes had passed since her message.

Twenty whole minutes, and neither Jarrod nor Sylvie had replied.

Still, Elodie's expression didn't flicker.

Esmeralda, seeing Elodie's direct message, called her.
