After they were done with breakfast, she said, “I have something on today and must return to the Harris residence. In the meantime, don’t head to Jenson Group if you have nothing important to attend to. If any paperwork requires your attention, have Nico bring it over.”

“It seems like your eldest brother is still in Salinsburgh. I’m not comfortable with you going back alone,” Cedrick uttered.

Gwendolyn chuckled. “Asher dotes on me the most. What could he possibly do to me?”

The man fell silent, a quiet melancholy settling over him.
