Bab 42: A Stitch In Time.

A few days later, after the board meeting where Evelina's idea was approved, Leone and Edoardo were walking back to Leone's office. The air was filled with the usual hum of the office as they passed by the polished walls.

Edoardo glanced at Leone with a slight smile. "I must admit, I didn't expect the board to be so enthusiastic about her proposal. You must be impressed with Evelina's initiative."

Leone's lips tightened, and he gave a sharp nod. "Impressed is one way to put it. The idea is solid."

Edoardo nodded, but as they continued walking, Leone suddenly stopped, his expression distant as something caught his mind.

He looked down the hallway briefly before turning his gaze to Edoardo. "How tall are you again?"

Edoardo tilted his head, blinking in confusion. "Uh? 6 feet, why?"

Leone's lips quirked slightly, a cold but playful gleam in his eyes. "Perfect. You should go help Leonora by being her model. I have work to do."
