Sylvia immediately turned around and went downstairs to a street next to the Art Academy.

It was the end of school hours, so most of the snack bars were occupied by students.

Sylvia came to a small but cozy restaurant.

The owner was very welcoming and asked her what she wanted to eat as soon as she entered.

She ordered a main and two sides before going inside, intending to sit down at the innermost window seat.

However, before she could do that, she saw that someone was already sitting there.

That person was Thomas Carter.

What was even more embarrassing was that the moment

she saw him, he also looked up and spotted her. His eyes were clear and cold as usual, but his lips were curled up in a shallow

smile.

“...Hi.” Sylvia smiled stiffly.

Thomas asked, “Did you come here to get take-out?” Sylvia’s eyes twitched. She was just about to look for an excuse to bluff her

way through when the boss brought

her order over and asked with a smile, “Your order is ready, Miss. Where would you like to sit?”

The expression on Sylvia's face froze.

Thomas looked at her quietly.

After choking for a moment, she pointed to Thomas’ table. “I'll sit here.”

She sat down in the empty seat opposite Thomas. The boss also put down the dishes that she had ordered.

Thomas had come earlier than her and also ordered something. However, his meal looked clear and bland.

She did not think much of it and picked up the cutlery to eat her meal.

Thomas did not mention her supposed take-out order, so Sylvia had a pretty smooth lunch.

After eating, they went back to the Art Academy together.

Their journey back was very quiet, and only when they reached the office door did Sylvia say to him, “I'll be heading back to my

office now. Bye, Thomas.” Thomas hummed in reply. She turned around and went into her office.

Thomas looked at her closed door and silently smirked.

At the same time, in Carter Tower.

At the top floor, in Odell’s office.

Cliff knocked on the door and entered. When he saw the man working inside, he frowned and said, “Master Carter, the police

sent word that Mr. Weiss has run away. He was gone when they tried looking for him at his house. His wife and children also left

Westchester City a few days ago. However, the police have already sealed off all the entrances and exits of Westchester City.

They won’t allow him to escape.”

Odell’s eyes turned cold, and he said, “Put up a reward. Whoever finds him first will get a cash reward of five million.”

Cliff quickly said, “Understood , Master Carter. I’ll make the arrangements.”

Spencer Weiss was a senior executive of the company, as well as a small shareholder. Some time ago, the company had gotten

into trouble because he had embezzled the public funds of a large project, leading to massive problems with the project. If not for

Odell’s swift and decisive efforts to turn the situation around in one night, Carter Corporation would have been facing a larger

crisis now.

Furthermore, Spencer had been promoted to his position by Odell, yet he had still dared to do such a thing behind Odell’s back.

With the issuing of the order offering this

reward, Spencer would most likely be caught soon. With Odell’s temper, he would probably rot in jail for the rest of his life.

However, he would reap what he had sowed. Cliff finished speaking and headed out.

As he walked to the door, he suddenly thought of something and gave a careful look at Odell.

Odell noticed it and said in a cold voice, “What is it?”

Cliff whispered, “I just received news that the Madam ate lunch with Second Master Carter. They ate in a small restaurant next to

the Art Academy.”

Odell’s expression instantly darkened.

Cliff quickly said, “However, they went to the restaurant separately, so it seems that they met by accident. Furthermore, they

went straight to their respective offices after eating. There was no other communication.”

Odell’s expression was still extremely cold.

Cliff shivered and said in a low voice, “Master Carter, if there’s nothing else, Ill take my leave now.”

Odell did not say anything, and the atmosphere was very quiet.

Cliff bowed his head and went out.

The man sat where he was, his hand squeezing the pen so
