“Wait, two guys vyirig for one girl? Do you remember Mr. Fulton, who was all chummy with Ms. Lewis
before? Word on the street is that Mr. Fulton is now Mrs. Lewis‘ go–to guy.”
“Oh my, this is too melodramatic!”
Before they could dive deeper into the conversation, Benjamin stood up from the nearby couch, with
Larry trailing him like a shadow.
“Mr. Hawkins, it’s just some people spinning tales. Don’t let it get to you.”

“Milady, there’s still plenty of potential in the Dunhill market. I’m considering making it the main focus

As Timothy and Grace chatted, they made their way out of the elevator.
But their conversation hit a speed bump.
“Look who’s back. Ms. Lewis!”

Grace’s eyes narrowed. She wasn’t satisfied with his answer.
She had reviewed the surveillance footage from the fashion show and coincidentally spotted Samuel in
