Chapter 418

Even as a few eager guests tried to catch his attention with polite greetings,

Waldron ignored them all and strode right past, just as brusque and eccentric as ever, with no patience for superficial niceties.

He came to a stop in front of their small group.

Sylvie's smile brightened, suddenly genuine. "Mr. Ferguson."

Jarrod inclined his head in greeting.

Waldron gave a short nod, his gaze flicking to Alexander, then to Elodie standing beside him.

He'd always respected Alexander-after all, he was the only son of that infamous old man, and his talents were well known even on the international stage.

As for Elodie...

Waldron barely spared her a glance before turning to Alexander. "Are you two together now?"

Back in the day, they had spent so much time working side by side that everyone assumed they'd inevitably become a couple.

The question landed out of nowhere.

Even Jarrod glanced at the pair, curious.

But Waldron didn't wait for Alexander or Elodie to answer. With his hands clasped behind his back, he let out a dry, sardonic laugh. "Well, Alexander, your taste in partners leaves something to be desired certainly not as sharp as Mr. Silverstein's."
