Lucinda shook her head and cracked a small smile.
“Hire him.”
“ihat?” Zaniyah’s eyes bulged in disbelief.
“But this man could be a corporate spy sent by Tess! What if he leaks the company’s confidential information?”
“It would be easier to keep tabs on him, and I just want him to leak the confidential information,” Lucinda replied in a calm and collected tone, having made up her mind.
“Tess is hell-bent on draining the Roberts Group dry, and we’re going to help her do just that!”
After talking to Zaniyah, Lucinda tidied her desk. She planned to visit Cyrus on the top floor.
Hilliard had been in Forden for a long time. Lucinda intended to take Cyrus and visit the Turners. They would speak to Jennifer and negotiate Hilliard’s departure as soon as possible.
Strangely, when Lucinda arrived at the CEO’s office on the top floor, Cyrus’ assistant, Malcolm, wasn’t outside.
Lucinda felt comfortable enough to go in without an appointment.
Lucinda cracked open the door, and then paused. A deep voice wafted from the office. Cyrus was talking on the phone.
“I’m worried it might be too radical. After all, this is about Lucinda. Chances are, she has her own plan…”

She lingered outside to hear more. Cyrus was being uncharacteristically mysterious, But before she could learn more, the door opened from within. Malcolm found her.
Cyrus put down his mobile phone and gazed tenderly at Lucinda.

“How long have you been there? Why didn’t you come in?”
Lucinda rubbed her earlobe.
“I just arrived. I was hoping we might visit Jennifer together when you’re free.”
“Okay, I have finished my work. We can leave now.”
Lucinda nodded obediently.
Cyrus’ eyes were calm. There was no hint of duplicity in his gaze.
Perhaps she had misheard.
She decided not to overthink it. Even if her brothers were hiding something, they would never hurt her.
Cyrus and Lucinda were about to leave and meet with the Turners when a message from Hilliard delayed them.
