"By the way, how is Jeremy doing?" Felicia asked. Yesterday, Heather had told her about her previous job and mentioned that Savannah also worked at Roen Capital. Since Jeremy had left Iceland, Felicia hadn't had the chance to contact him.
"He went on a business trip to the States," Savannah replied. "He is not in the Capital right now, and it will probably be a while before he returns."
"I see."
Savannah was about to say more, but the sound of heavy, approaching footsteps made her pause. Following Felicia's gaze, she turned to see Max walking toward them.
Max's cold eyes swept over Savannah, sending an instant chill down her spine. By the time he drew near and his gaze landed on Felicia, he had flawlessly concealed his icy demeanor. "What are you talking about?"
"Nothing much," Felicia replied smoothly. "Just catching up with Savannah."
Max offered a curt nod. "Let's get together when we have time. You haven't eaten much, and the food is going to get cold."
Felicia looked at him, then turned back to Savannah. "Let me know when you are free, Savannah. We will have a proper catch up."
"Alright," Savannah agreed.
Max reached out, took Felicia's hand, and led her away. Savannah watched their retreating figures, feeling a bitter sense of irony. Years ago, in this very place, Felicia had been heavily pregnant when they ran into Max and Andrea. Back then, Max had been incredibly protective of Andrea while looking at Felicia with absolute disgust. And look at them now.
Just then, Serena stepped out of a nearby private room and walked right into Max and Felicia. She paused in surprise before greeting him. "Hi, Max."
Max acknowledged her with a nod. As the private room door opened, he noticed Darin inside, and Darin spotted the people at the door as well.
"What are you doing here?" Max asked.
"I am currently working as Mr. Foxhall's assistant," Serena answered. "We had a dinner meeting with Roen Capital today. Savannah hadn't returned to the room, so I came out to check on her."
