A knock interrupted her as an assistant poked her head in the door.
“Miss Ross, Mr. Hernandez is here.”
“Alright.”
Zaniyah walked out of the office and met Brinleigh who had just arrived. They both exchanged pleasantries.
After Zaniyah left, Brinleigh walked towards Lucinda and took a seat opposite her.
She didn’t look up from her work.
“What brings you here?” she asked curtly.
Brinleigh flashed a smile.
“Don’t tell me you forgot that my birthday is in three days, Lucinda?”
Lucinda had no idea.
“Oh! So you want me to wish you a happy birthday in advance? I can recall that your parents used to hold a banquet to mark your birthday. When are you returning to Stastle?”
Brinleigh blushed and said, “That was back when I was a kid. My parents said that I don’t have to go back this year if I brought a girlfriend with me.”
She caught on to Brinleigh’s thoughts immediately.
“You’re the golden child of the Hernandez family. Why wouldn’t they let you go back? Don’t try to trick me.”
He wasn’t discouraged by her sharp and precise intuition.

“I know you’re not heading to Stastle anytime soon, but how about having dinner with me as a birthday present from you?”
It wasn’t a big demand, and Lucinda had no reason to refuse her friend’s simple request.
Meanwhile, on the 23rd floor of the Roberts Group building, Sonny snuck into Nathaniel’s office.
“Boss, I just heard that Mr. Hernandez is here again. He is speaking to Miss Ross alone on the top floor.”
“Alone?”
Nathaniel’s expression darkened as he frowned.
Whenever Brinleigh was around, something always seemed to go wrong.
Nathaniel rose from his chair and pushed open the door before making his way to the elevator that would take him to the top floor.
At the same time, Brinleigh was exiting Lucinda’s office, heading for the elevator to leave the building.
