The Billionaire's Secret Quartet

Chapter 1404

“Mr. Falconet I’ve still got something to do today. Let’s catch up another time,” Dr. Funke paused, flashing a polite smile at Alaric before stepping into the elevator.

Alaric lingered at the elevator entrance, not joining him inside. The roguish grin that usually played on his face was replaced by a more formal expression. “Alright, I’ll contact you another day. Have a good day.”

No sooner had he finished speaking than the elevator doors slid shut.

“Hey, Dr. Funke…” Hertha stepped forward, about to say something when the doors closed.

Watching the elevator descend, Hertha pushed Alaric’s arm irritably, “What are you playing at? You knew we were here to see Dr. Funke, and you just let him leave!”

Alaric’s arm swayed to the side with her push. Turning his mischievous eyes to her, the familiar playful spark was still there. “Hertha, three years have passed and you’re still as brash as ever!”
