Isobel was aware that Morris had arrived in Veridia, so when Sullivan requested her return to retrieve certain documents, she eagerly accepted.
'Ana must be completely wrapped up in that tiny studio of hers—she's probably already back in Marcel,' Isobel mused.
'This is my chance to capture Morris's attention,' she determined.
'Even if it means using underhanded tactics, it'll be worth every effort,' she added silently.
Plus, those documents Sullivan needed might be exactly what Toby had been searching for.
'This Veridia trip will accomplish multiple goals at once,' she calculated.
Isobel inquired with one of the assistants and learned that Morris had arrived early for a conference.
She grabbed a cup of his preferred coffee and headed directly to his office to wait.
The morning conference wrapped up quickly, and Morris returned to his office soon after.
