“Doctor Grayson! Please, have a seat with us,” Rachel said with a polite smile.

“And you are?”

“Hello, I’m Rachel, Miss Selene’s personal secretary.”

“Oh, nice to meet you,” Doctor Grayson replied, his eyes briefly scanning the four men who were watching him intently.

“You came with…” he trailed off, looking at me after a short pause.

“They are members of our company’s board of directors,” Rachel clarified.

One by one, the men extended their hands to shake Grayson’s.

“Please, join us.”

They pulled out a chair for him next to me. As Grayson sat down, he offered an apology.

“Sorry if I interrupted anything.”

“Not at all, Doctor Grayson. In fact, it’s a lucky coincidence that we get to meet you. By the way, it’s my birthday,” Mr. Steele said with a grin..

Being a bachelor, he was soon set to marry his longtime girlfriend.

“Happy Birthday,” Grayson offered.

“Thank you kindly.”

“I don’t have a gift for you at the moment.”

“That doesn’t matter. Your presence itself is a gift to me.”

Grayson chuckled and gave him a nod. “Well, I’ll owe you one. I promise that if you ever need my help someday, I’ll be there. Consider that my gift to you.”

Mr. Steele’s eyes widened, and a broad smile spread across his face.

“This is the best gift I could ask for! If I ever fall ill, there’s no way I’ll be dying anytime soon with Doctor Grayson treating me.”

His words made everyone burst into laughter.

Meanwhile, Grayson turned his attention to me. I had been quietly observing him as he conversed so effortlessly with my associates.

“So? How’s your investigation going?” he asked me casually.
