How a Dying Woman Rewrote Her Epilogue

Chapter 348

Elodie paused mid-stride. "Where is he?"

Could it be that things at Neural Intelligence had already wrapped up?

Her assistant replied, "He's gone to see the Professor. Said they had an appointment this afternoon."

A few people were still lingering at the venue. As the main organizer today, Esmeralda was overseeing the event and had already seen off several industry colleagues who'd dropped by.

Elodie nodded. "Alright, I'll go check in."

She couldn't imagine why Jarrod would show up at VistaLink Technologies' product launch-certainly not to cheer them on. After all, Neural Intelligence was hosting a major event of their own today. If he wasn't at Neural Intelligence, how could he possibly represent them?

With suspicion prickling at her, Elodie headed for the elevator.

When the doors slid open, she found Charlie and Jarrod already inside.

Jarrod glanced over, his expression steady and unruffled. "Congratulations," he said.

It was impossible to tell if he meant the launch itself or something else entirely.

Elodie looked away, offering no response. Instead, she turned her attention to Charlie.

Hands clasped behind his back, Charlie met her gaze, clearly pleased that Elodie wasn't flustered by her ex-husband's presence. Staying composed was the only way to get through the day.
