Violet smiled at McNeil. "Let's go. Mr. Brown felt awkward calling directly, so he reached out to the admin office instead."

McNeil just gave a quiet "Alright," and left the office alongside Violet.

Victoria waited in the lounge for almost half an hour before she finally saw Maynard approaching. When she noticed he was alone, she knew she wouldn't be seeing McNeil today.

"Ma'am, Mr. Langford has an important meeting right now. I'm afraid he won't be available."

Even if it was strictly business, Maynard still felt it was inappropriate. This conversation would have to wait until Mr. Langford was free to speak with her in person.

Victoria gave a polite smile. "Understood."
