How a Dying Woman Rewrote Her Epilogue

Chapter 423

Mr. Gray glanced at Jarrod, and, hearing his introduction, found himself even more intrigued by Elodie. "I've heard quite a bit about you recently, Ms. Thorne. You're making quite a name for yourself at a young age."

Mr. Dale chimed in, "As the chief engineer heading up VistaLink Technologies' flight control systems, you've certainly earned Mr. Silverstein's trust. We're very much looking forward to seeing what surprises our future collaboration might bring."

Jarrod didn't add anything further, leaving Elodie to take the lead.

She spoke confidently about her upcoming plans and strategic direction. Nexus Analytics had a well-developed system, and as Elodie described her vision, Jarrod would occasionally supplement her points with some details about the company's operations.

The executives couldn't help but look at her with growing admiration.

Sylvie arrived just in time to witness the scene-Elodie and Jarrod standing together, working in easy tandem.

Sylvie's expression didn't flicker; she barely spared Elodie a glance as she strode

over.

"Jarrod," she greeted, coming to stand beside him, her arm casually brushing against the sleeve of his suit.

Only then did Jarrod look down and acknowledge her.

Mr. Gray and Mr. Dale exchanged a knowing glance, immediately recognizing Sylvie's identity. Mr. Gray, who moments before had felt a certain unspoken chemistry between Jarrod and Elodie, now saw the official "leading lady" arrive. With a sly smile, he turned to Elodie and asked, "Ms. Thorne, you must have a boyfriend as well, right?"

Watts happened to walk up just in time to catch the question.
