"Felix, let me ask you something. If you saw a perfect apple covered in someone else's saliva, would you still take a bite?"
Felix fell silent.
So... she was calling his brother dirty.
Before he could say anything else, Molly's assistant pushed through the door. "Ms. Harding, we've borrowed everyone we could. They've already started working."
"Good. I'll go check on them." She headed for the door, but the assistant added, "Everyone's saying Sibyl Edwards is here."
Molly's steps faltered. She turned back to Felix with a smile. "As long as he stays, I'll definitely seize this 'perfect chance.'"
Felix was speechless.
Why was Sibyl showing up now to stir things up?
At the office building entrance, Molly ran into Miles, who was about to leave.
"Something important came up. I'll have Felix stay and help you."
Molly gave him a tight smile. "Sure."
Felix grabbed Miles before he could walk off, shooting him a meaningful look. "Didn't you just say this is a Vance subsidiary with a billion-dollar contract on the line? Nothing's more urgent or important than this right now, right?"
She didn't wait for Miles's answer. She walked away, because she already knew what it would be.
