After the Fall A Leap into a Stranger's Arms novel Chapter 158

A small smile flickered on Lawrence's lips. His voice was calm and sure. “Don’t worry, Dad. I’ll give it everything I’ve got.”

In less than a month, Nestor’s opinion of Lawrence had completely changed. The company had a whole new energy, from top to bottom, and it was all because of him.

Lawrence might not have come from a fancy background, but the way he handled things—his vision, his methods—he was the real deal.

Catherine might not end up living some wildly rich life with him, not like she would have with Waldo, but with Lawrence, she’d always have stability. That was something Nestor could trust.

“Good. Hearing you say that really puts my mind at ease.” Nestor’s voice softened.

Just then, the assistant knocked and poked his head in. “Mr. Blair, Mr. Magee is in the lobby. He’ll be up any second.”

Nestor turned to Lawrence. “Come on. Let’s go welcome our guest.”

Lawrence, tall and steady, followed Nestor out to the elevator. When the doors slid open with a soft chime, Nestor, usually so stiff and upright, immediately relaxed his posture. His face lit up with a huge, genuine smile as he stepped forward.

“Magee, welcome! It’s an absolute honor to have you here at The Blair Group.” Nestor’s handshake was warm and enthusiastic.

Magee was just as composed and polished as ever. He shook hands, exchanged a few pleasantries, but his gaze wandered. For a brief moment, his eyes met Lawrence’s. There was a quick, subtle nod between them.

Nestor patted Lawrence’s shoulder. “Magee, this is Lawrence.”
