Chapter 43 I Hope Your Wish Comes True

• Alexander escorted Elise into the car before he instructed the driver to immediately drive off. Meanwhile, she glanced at their closely intertwined fingers and instinctively tried to withdraw her hand.
• While the car slowly departed, neither of them said a word. There was a melancholic vibe that enveloped them, which continued until the car pulled into the driveway of the Griffith Residence. She finally broke the silence and said, "Thanks for standing up for me earlier. Just let me know if you need my help with any company matters in the future."
• Elise thought, If he loses this collaboration because of me, then I have to compensate him for his loss. However, it never crossed Alexander's mind to turn to a woman for help, so he rejected her outright. "You should go home," was what he replied instead.
