Never Mistake a Queen for a Lapdog novel Chapter 500

As expected, Seth didn’t press the issue. He took out his phone and glanced at a WhatsApp message. As Noreen turned to leave, she heard a voice message play from his phone. It was Bianca.

“Seth, when are you going to be done?”

Seth replied with a voice message of his own, his previously cool tone now laced with warmth. “I just finished. I’m on my way to you now.”

Their devotion was as intense as ever.

Just after they both left, Spencer Reed emerged from the restaurant. He immediately sent a message to Bianca. *Cousin, I just saw Mr. Harcourt with that Noreen woman. Is there something going on between them?*

Spencer had seen Noreen at Ascendancy Group before and knew from his mother, Lana, that she and Seth had a history. Seeing them together made him worry about a rekindled romance, so he sent the message as a warning.

Bianca replied a moment later. *You’re overthinking it. It was just a business dinner. Seth told me about it.*

Spencer breathed a sigh of relief. *Good, as long as you know.*

Bianca thought for a moment, then added, *PerseTech is preparing for its IPO soon. Keep a close eye on things at Ascendancy Group for me.*

*Your business is my business,* Spencer replied instantly. *Consider it done!*

…

When Seth arrived, Bianca was still working late at PerseTech.

“Just a minute, I have a few more documents to finish,” she said without looking up from her computer.

“Take your time,” Seth replied, picking up a book from her desk and flipping through it. “Are you really going to apply for the master’s program?”
