Lysander cast a cold glance in Nathaniel's direction.
Nathaniel shrugged and turned to Giselle with a grin. "Hey, Giselle," he said playfully, "haven't you dug up anything else juicy? You've been studying in Feloria all these years, surely you've come across this guy in the business circles there?"
Giselle's eyes twinkled with amusement.
"This person's mentor is even more renowned," she replied. "Alex Tyrell is a member of the Feloria Academy of Sciences and a godfather of investment. His big data company has ties to the Feloria Intelligence Agency, and everyone around him is under government protection. We could only find surface-level information: 'Forest Team' is a group of our people who went abroad for further studies, and I've heard they're bringing their team back home soon."
Her eyes sparkled with excitement as she spoke.
"Plus, my professor in Pennsylvania does business with Tyrell. He's agreed to arrange a meeting for me once they're back. There's a lot of potential for collaboration."
Nathaniel whistled appreciatively. "Giselle, you've really got some skills! Let me know when you meet them; I'd love to see what all the fuss is about. Must be quite the character if they're this hard to pin down!"
"Well, Lysander trusts me with Falcon Technologies, our joint venture. I have to give it my all and not let him down," Giselle said softly, her eyes filled with affection. Her delicate hand lightly rested on Lysander's, which held a glass of wine. "Don't drink too much, it's rough on your stomach. We have things to do once we get home tonight."
"Alright, as you say," Lysander replied, his sharp features softening for a moment as he set down the glass gently.
"Some PDA, huh? Do it somewhere else, you lovebirds!" The group started teasing them good-naturedly.
Giselle blushed, leaning into Lysander, her fair cheeks hidden against his neck.
Suddenly, the door swung open.
