âGood morning, everyone.

Descending the stairs, Baxter led Arya to where Merrick and Rosalynn were sampling tea.
He greeted them, beaming.
âGood morning.
Care to join us for a cup of tea?â Merrick invited them.
Rosalynn lowered her eyes.

âPlease enjoy the tea.
â
âThank you.
â
Noting Rosalynnâs composure, Baxter and Arya took their cups and sipped.
âDelightful tea.
Who crafted this blend?â
As a tea aficionado, Baxter couldnât help but praise it.

Baxter turned to Rosalynn and lauded, âRosalynn, your expertise is admirable.
Iâd be honored to have an assistant like you.

âWe have different minds.
I doubt your wish will ever materialize,â Rosalynn retorted coldly.
Brianâs features softened.
He sipped his tea and observed Rosalynn with intrigue.
Baxterâs smile, however, dissipated.
âHow arrogant you are.
â
Unfazed, Rosalynn replied, âHonesty is paramount in business.
Wouldnât you agree?â
âOf course,â Baxter responded coldly.
âThen, youâre hardly a suitable partner for anyone,â Rosalyn declared.
