"Who knows? But there's a saying that even the devil can pull the millstone for you if you have the money."
"Is Elisa in need of money? She's Iris after all."
"It was just an example. Since she joined the company, she has to stand out from the rest and make a good name for herself."
…
Scorn streaked across Linda's eyes. Perhaps Elisa was expecting her to make a move, but she wouldn't have expected Linda to make Philip come here.
Maybe Elisa was incredibly charming. When Philip heard that there was a celebration dinner in Elisa's honor and he was invited, he agreed with much eagerness.
She would tell Elisa all this in the end.
She wanted Elisa to understand the consequences of provoking her.
The number of people was informed beforehand, so there weren't any extra chairs. Coincidentally, the last seat available was next to Elisa.
Scorn streaked across her eyes. She didn't care about things like that.
Since she had the nerve to take up the challenge, how could Linda not do anything?
Linda didn't know that Elisa had already expected her to look for Philip to strike a brutal punch.
So how could she not be prepared?
It was just that...
Why did Philip seem particularly agreeable?
Elisa felt that something wasn't right.
As Philip walked in, Linda watched him, and her eyes flashed. "You're here, Mr. Whitford. Have a seat. I'm very thankful that you agreed to attend Liz's celebration dinner."
Philip suddenly laughed out loud. "It's nothing. Of course I have to attend Ms. Elisa's celebration dinner!"
It was as if everyone understood. The way they looked at Philip was as though they were telling him that they knew.
