Elise’s cheeks turned beet red. She wanted to explain herself, but she ended up going along with Alexander’s words since she didn’t know what else to say. “Yeah. Since I’m here, let’s confirm some of the details regarding our partnership, Mr. Smith.”

Tiffany Smith, who was sitting beside Alexander, didn’t seem pleased by Elise’s suggestion. “You agreed to sing a few songs with me today, Alexander! Since we’re out for some fun, let’s not talk about work-related matters, okay?”

“That’s right! Let’s not talk about work as it’s pretty rare for us to spend our leisure time together. Since Miss Sinclair is here, let’s all have a few drinks together! We’ll enjoy ourselves, just for tonight!” Theodore said with a wide grin. However, Alexander merely smirked after hearing their words. 

“I’m sure you know that Miss Sinclair owns the largest portion of Griffith Group’s shares now, Mr. Smith. Whatever Miss Sinclair says should take precedence. Since she’s here today, I don’t think it would be right for me to use work as an excuse to enjoy myself.” Theodore quickly understood what Alexander meant.

“All of us are really busy with work in the daytime, Miss Sinclair. It’s such a rare opportunity for us to relax a little! Why don’t we have a few drinks before we start our discussion? We can talk about our companies’ partnership a while later.” Theodore chuckled and glanced at Elise before he reached over and held onto her arm.

He led her to a spot beside Alexander. Elise was about to protest, but Theodore didn’t give her the chance to say anything. He simply called for the waiter and ordered a few more bottles of alcohol. Elise shot Alexander a glance, only to see him gazing at her with a rather enigmatic look in his eyes.

Something seemed to click in her mind at that very moment. “Mr. Smith, don’t you think we should settle our contract before having our drinks? We’d be able to enjoy even more that way!” Ultimately, Theodore was too impatient to listen to Elise’s constant talk about their partnership and the contract. He finally gave in.
