Chapter 341

Granger sent another text before disappearing for the night.

"I'm at a work dinner, you guys go ahead and chat."

After that, he was off the grid.

Once Granger got into his car, he didn't pay much attention to the ongoing conversation and replied, "I'm busy too, catch you later."

Then he closed the messaging app.

Seeing both Thorne and Granger were out of the loop, Vesta chimed in, "Time for dinner, talk later." Moran was totally speechless.

That afternoon, Charlene headed to the R&D department for a meeting. Gaylord was there too.

As Charlene skillfully identified issues and quickly offered solutions, Gaylord watched her without interrupting.

After the meeting wrapped up, Charlene was about to leave when she noticed Gaylord looking her way. She paused and, out of courtesy, asked, "Is your first day at the company going well?"

Gaylord replied, "I'm settling in fine, thanks for asking."

Charlene nodded, said no more, and left the conference room with her laptop.

In the following days, Charlene juggled her work while negotiating a copyright agreement with an Al journal.

On Friday, after reviewing the R&D department's work report, Charlene asked Chester to send Gaylord to her office.
