Lily pretended not to notice Benjamin Lucas IX's wary gaze, and obediently replied, "I understand, Mr. Lucas's assistant. Rest assured, I will work hard."
It looks like the matters at the Gray family's side can only be remotely directed for the time being.
During this time, I need to stay here and build up Ethan Wilson's good favor.
"Mhm, work hard," Benjamin Lucas IX said coldly, and added, "And, call me Mr. Lucas."
A twitch crossed Lily's forehead, Mr. Lucas...
Well, if that's what he prefers.
"Alright, Mr. Lucas."
Lily nodded obediently and quickly immersed herself in work.

Lily spent the whole afternoon at the top floor of Bastion and realized that things were not quite as she had expected.
It was her first day on the job, and after only half a day at the company, she was as tired as a dog.
The anticipated possibility of meeting Ethan Wilson alone did not happen at all.
