Upon hearing this, Phoebe Ainsworth stiffened, and the polite smile on her face faltered for a moment. "Haha, Miss Thorne, you're so funny."
Shirley Thorne gave a casual smile, not wanting to speak with her.
She might not have wanted to, but someone else did.
Susan Langley's face lit up with excitement. "Phoebe, what brings you here?"
She took a step forward, her manner overly familiar, and smiled. "Are you here to see Ethan?"
Phoebe Ainsworth nodded, lifting the briefcase in her hand. "Yes, I have a few work-related things to ask him about."
"Phoebe, always so driven."
A look of gratification on her face, Susan Langley turned to Shirley Thorne. "Shirley, let's open the door. We shouldn't keep them from their work."
Shirley Thorne tilted her head with a smile. "What a coincidence. I also have some graphic design work to go over. I'll take you to the study!"
