Keen quickly came back down after heading up for ten minutes, taking Farrah up with him.
In the elevator, Farrah couldn't help but chuckle, "Seraphina really has some pull in your company. Just mentioning her name can get me up the building, and talking about her gets me received."
"Mr. Reynolds is in a meeting and doesn't have time to see you right now," Keen said, "If you're interested, you can talk to me first about what you want to say."
Farrah shot him a glare, "Talk to you? Do you have the power to make decisions?"
Keen replied, "If you insist on speaking with Mr. Reynolds, then be my guest. But let me warn you, Mr. Reynolds' meeting might run until midnight. And there's no guarantee he'll see you."
"Then I'll wait!" Farrah shot him another glare, "Unless you can make decisions on behalf of your boss."
Keen glanced at her and chose to remain silent.
Afterwards, Farrah sat in the office on the 46th floor of the Starhaven branch of the Reynolds Group, waiting until 1am.
When Leandro stepped out of the meeting room, Farrah was dozing off on a chair in the lounge.
Leandro glanced at her when passing the lounge, and that's when Keen found the opportunity to say, "It's the girl who came this morning. She said she has something about Ms. Bennett to talk to you about."
Leandro heard him but didn't respond.
Seeing this reaction, Keen didn't know what to do and just escorted him into his office.
Back in his office, Leandro finally checked his phone. For the past 40 hours, from yesterday morning till now, there had been no messages from Seraphina.
While Keen was outside hesitating whether or not to send Farrah away, Leandro's phone suddenly rang, "Let her in."
Farrah was woken up by Keen and seemed a bit irritated - this guy actually made her wait for six hours!
After she walked into Leandro's office, she sat directly across from him, lounging comfortably. She looked at Leandro and said provocatively, "Do you finally have time to see me? I thought Seraphina was important to you, but I guess not!"
Leandro seemed too lazy to even glance at her. He checked his emails while casually asking, "What do you want to say?"
"You like Seraphina, don't you?" Farrah said, "That day at her apartment, you asked a lot of questions about her. You like her, right?"
Leandro heard this, looked up at her, and nodded, "Yes."
Hearing this, Farrah asked again, "So this time Seraphina harmed our Wilson family, did you help her?"
"No."
This answer seemed to surprise Farrah. She looked at Leandro in silence for a moment, seeming to barely believe him, "So you're not as dumb as I thought."
"Is that what you wanted to say?" Leandro asked.
"Of course not!" Farrah said, "But before I tell you, I wanted to know how important Seraphina is to you. Do you love her?"
This time, Leandro didn't answer Farrah's question. He just said, "Say what you want to say."
Farrah was silent for a moment, then said, "I want to make one thing clear, what I'm about to tell you is for your own good. What do I get in return?"
"The importance of the information you provide will determine your reward," Leandro replied.
"That's just empty talk!"
"What I promise, I do." Leandro looked at her, without saying anything extra.
