Chapter 284

Low whispers started bubbling up around the room.

"Ms. Ailie's way out of our league. Who are we to go running after her?" someone muttered under their breath.

Another colleague, not bothering to hide the spite in her voice, chimed in with a mocking smile. "Georgia, you're Ms. Marchand's favorite. If any of us tries to track down Ms. Ailie, we'll get our heads bitten off. But you? With your connections, why don't you give her a call? I'm sure she'll come running for you."

She was out of ideas.
