Sylvie quickly regained her composure, not revealing so much as a flicker of emotion.

Jarrod glanced at Elodie, his gaze lingering for a split second before he spoke coolly, "Let's discuss the details after this is over."

Elodie thought for a moment. "He might have other motives."

Jarrod wasn't an easy man to read. Things looked like they were going VistaLink's way for now, but it was best to keep their guard up.
