Just as Xanthe was about to call out to Sean, the public relations manager walked into the elevator. Noticing Xanthe blocking the entrance, he frowned and said, "Don't you know the etiquette? We have esteemed guests!" Sean glanced over and replied, "It's fine; let her in." The manager chuckled politely. "Mr. Reynolds, I'm sorry for the oversight." Xanthe scoffed silently.

Xanthe wanted to find Shakira, but running into Sean complicated things. So, she decided to wait until they left. Sean kept glancing at Xanthe, and when he noticed she wasn't interested, He clenched his jaw.

He thought, 'My foot still hurts! How ungrateful she is, pretending not to care!'

Clearing his throat, Sean said, "I'd like to explore the Lopez Group."

The manager responded, "Of course, Mr. Reynolds. I'll have the secretary..."

"No need for that, let her show me around," Sean said, pointing to Xanthe, who was shrinking in the corner.

Everyone fell silent, shocked. Xanthe felt a jolt of surprise. She wasn't ready for this.

"Mr. Reynolds, this employee is from finance; she's not trained in hospitality."

Sean's tone was casual but firm. "She may not be a host, but she knows the company, right? Your formality makes me uncomfortable."

The manager felt helpless, turning to Xanthe, embarrassment on his face. Noticing her employee badge, he softened. "Ms. Sullivan, I'll inform finance about this; please cooperate."

Xanthe replied, "... Fine." Her luck was strange; she tried to sneak away but still ended

up with Sean.

Under the watchful eyes of the public relations team, Xanthe followed Sean out of the elevat explore?" she asked curtly.

Sean gritted his teeth. "The rooftop!"
