Chapter 199
The next day, in the afternoon, Harry showed up at Cole with his core technical team to go over some work details.
Over the past few days, Harry had been incredibly cooperative. It made Elodie’s job easier, saved her a lot of headaches. As a result, she’d warmed up to him a bit, become more polite, more willing to engage.
The second he arrived, she set aside what she’d been working on to meet with him.
They’d been talking for over an hour when Harry’s phone rang with Dante’s number.
Harry apologized quickly, stepped out of the room, and took the call.
Whatever was said on the other end wasn’t entirely clear, but after a brief silence, Harry just said, "Okay."
He was about to hang up when Dante added, "My father’s back. We’re having dinner at the house tonight. I’ll need you to come by."
Harry paused. "Your father’s back?" Then, "How long is he staying?"
"Two or three days."
After hanging up, Harry walked back into the meeting room. His eyes found Elodie, who was still deep in conversation with his technical team, completely unaware he was watching her.
When the meeting finally wrapped up and Elodie stood to walk them out, Harry spoke up.
"Are you working late tonight?"
