Josiah said. “But you might. By the way. Mc. Collins, can you shortlist some candidates for Lysander’s assistant? Once you have a list, run it by me first.”

Lysander frowned. “I can handle that myself. It’s just an assistant after all”

“Do you know any of the employees from Thome Constructions and Energies? And how much do you know about them?”

Lysander stayed silent.

“I’ll check them out for you first. Their abilities can be lacking, but their character can’t.”

Carol also chimed in. “Ms. Thorne, Mr. Guerra’s concerns aren’t unfounded. After all, you’re just starting out in a new field, and if you encounter an assistant with ulterior motives, it’s easy to be taken advantage of, so it’s better to let Mr. Guerra review them in advance.”

After hearing Carol’s words, Lysander didn’t insist any further.

Her phone vibrated.

It was a message from Adrian, which read: Have you gotten off the plane yet?

Adrian called her before she left that morning.

He insisted on picking her up from the airport upon learning that she was flying back to Harborbrook that night. It took quite an effort for Lysander to convince him not to, as she planned to take a taxi to the hospital to visit Michelle.

Although Adrian finally agreed, he still texted right when the plane landed.

Nonchalantly running his fingers through his hair, Josiah glanced at the screen. “Is it Michelle, or Mr. Thorner

With swift agility, Lysander quickly turned off the screen.

“Aren’t you going to respond?”

After some consideration, Lysander turned her body away, shielding her phone from his view as she swiftly replied to Adrian’s message: Yep, I did, and I’m already on my way.

Adrian’s response came almost instantly: All right. I’ll wait for you downstairs.

Lysander: It’s fine.
