Chapter 1921

John’s study was inside another courtyard.

Caprice walked to the adjacent courtyard.

Upon her arrival, she noticed that the windows of the study were open. Her eyes shone. She quickly tiptoed to the window, careful to not make any noise.

She heard voices coming from inside the study.

“It’s a very new project. If you’re planning to expand its scope, why don’t we work on it together? I just happen to be planning to expand into the Glanchester market.”

She could not resist the urge to poke her head through the window and steal a peek inside.

Liam and her father were seated on separate armchairs.

Her father was in the middle of taking a sip from a teacup. He started shifting some documents around on the table, and that was when he suddenly directed a piercing gaze in Caprice’s direction.
