Lilian gathered her things, ready to leave.
"All right, that's it for today."
"Pleasure working with you," Karl smiled in response.
After that, they left the café and went their separate ways.
On her way home, Lilian's phone rang. It was Laurent—sent by Tiffany to quietly gather news about today's meeting. Unlike Linda, who was brazen enough to directly ask Karl, Tiffany preferred to have Laurent discreetly find out how Lilian and Karl got along. After all, the two supposedly spent the whole afternoon together at the café.
Lilian hesitated for a moment, composing herself before answering.
"I think he's nice. We have similar personalities and get along well."
In truth, after their agreement, they hadn't exchanged more than a few words. Karl had immersed himself in the book he brought, while Lilian was glued to her phone.
Hearing this, Laurent was genuinely pleased.
"Lilian, I'm really glad to hear such good news before I leave for A.T."
