"Miss Thompson!"
Charlotte Thompson had not been out of the designer's office for long when someone called out to her from behind.
She turned around just as Elijah Walker was almost standing in front of her.
"Is there something you need?" Charlotte asked, looking calmly at the somewhat out-of-breath Elijah Walker.
He seemed to really want to say something to Charlotte, but when he looked up, he chose to press his lips together.
Charlotte's gaze toward him carried a hint of confusion.
Finally, Elijah Walker parted his lips, stammering, "Why..."
Why, when he clearly valued himself, did he not assign the task to him.
Why had she said she could help him solve the problem with Florienna Ellis, yet the company's people still gossiped about him.
Why did she see Teddy Carter and those people's true colors, yet still choose to turn a blind eye.
Elijah Walker had a pile of questions he wanted to ask Charlotte, but when he saw her, he couldn't bring himself to start.
