Ivor’s lips curled into a grin.
“Is that your way of praising me?”
She giggled before rolling her eyes. “I was just making a casual remark, but you still manage to spin it. Your shamelessness knows no bounds, Ivor.”
He laughed and walked toward her. Just as he was about to say something, someone knocked on the door.
Wiping the smile off his face, he walked over to open the door. He frowned when he saw that it was Floyd.
“Why are you knocking on her door at this time of night?” Ivor was obviously dissatisfied.
‘I know Ivor doesn’t want me to get in the way of their private time, but this is too important. It can’t wait.’
He braced himself, took a step close to Ivor, and whispered, “Please come with me, Mr. Ivor. I need to talk to you about the chip.”
“The chip?” Ivor was visibly worked up. “Do you have the news about the chip?”
Floyd nodded in response.
“Wait for me in the study. I’ll be there soon.” Ivor said.
‘I’ve gone to great lengths to track down the chip back then. It has been so long, too. I was even considering giving up on searching for it. I can’t believe Floyd gave me such great news!’
