Chapter 373 If You Want to See Your Kids, You Have to Beg Me


Stellan was really trying to forget that today was Marigold's big 60, but every time she opened her phone or laptop, there were those annoying pop-up messages.

It was obvious Marigold had gone all out for this birthday bash, and Stellan just wanted the day to be over already.

"Ms. Storm," Tommy knocked and strolled in, handing over some papers. "These need your John Hancock." "Alright," Stellan said, flipping through the documents, signing them, and passing them back to Tommy. Tommy lingered, so Stellan asked, "Anything else?"

"Yeah," Tommy said, a bit hesitant. "Ms. Storm, when are you gonna give me some real work? I can start at the bottom or jump right into the workshop. I feel kinda guilty just running errands for Silas with this fat paycheck." Stellan thought Tommy had a good head on his shoulders, not wanting to get paid for doing nothing. But she remembered Cormac's advice to be careful during these times.

"You just got here, no rush. Shadow Silas around the departments and get the lay of the land first," Stellan said, brushing him off. "In a few days, I'll give you something more substantial."

"Got it, I won't bug you anymore," Tommy said and left.

Stellan thought Cormac was being a bit paranoid about Tommy, but she knew caution was key for the long haul. She'd already set someone to dig into Tommy's background. She turned back to her computer, but another message popped up.
