Chapter 12- capable
Sean was clearly annoyed.
"What the hell! News this juicy and you didn’t tell me?!"
Norton shot a glance at his younger brother.
"What’s the point? It’s not like you know who the new girl is. Boss is being super tight-lipped about it—hasn’t even mentioned her name once. But I gotta say, that site she recommended? It’s got pretty much everything. Way more stable than most of those novel platforms, faster updates too. Pure text, no ads. Heaven."
Sean’s curiosity was instantly piqued. He stroked his chin, clearly intrigued.
"So hush-hush, huh? What’s the deal with her? Don’t tell me the boss is actually serious this time?"
Norton shook his head.
"Doesn’t seem like it. He’s been away on a business trip for a week, and just like always, it’s all about work. Not even a single call to his new girl."
The two brothers had worked under Morrison for years. They knew his habits well—when he was on a business trip, romance never made the cut. Norton had paid close attention this time too, and nothing had changed. That’s why he was sure Morrison wasn’t serious about this new fling either.
If the boss really was head over heels, he’d be glued to her 24/7. No way he’d go completely silent.
Sean nodded solemnly, as if he were analyzing some critical intel.
"So it’s just another fling?"
