When Eleanor reached her villa, she found Ethan playing with Freya in her room. As usual, he was still wearing a black business suit, even while playing with his daughter. Seeing Eleanor and Maya at the door, he walked out while Freya remained engrossed in solving a puzzle.
Eleanor introduced them. "Ethan, this is Maya, my assistant."
Ethan greeted her politely. "Hello. I am Ethan Raynor."
Maya, shocked to see Ethan Raynor at her boss's home, took a moment to regain her composure. "Hello. It's nice to meet you. I am Maya Patel."
Eleanor turned to Ethan. "When did you come?"
"Not long ago. I wanted to give you a list of schools in the area. Freya should start her schooling as we discussed earlier. I sorted out the ten best options for you to consider." He handed her a folded paper from his pocket.
Eleanor took the list. "I was thinking about that, but you know how busy my days were. Thank you. But I am slightly concerned about her security at school."
Ethan reassured her. "Don't worry. Grandma will dispatch some shadow guards for her. I spoke to her today. She will be back from Germany tomorrow. You can discuss it with her then."
Eleanor nodded. "Okay. I'll take it from here." She handed the list to Maya. "Maya, call all these schools and set appointments starting the day after tomorrow. The sooner, the better."
Maya responded, "Okay. Consider it done." She then walked back to the lounge downstairs.
Ethan said, "Go freshen up. I'll play with her for a while."
Eleanor went to her room, took a long bath, and changed into comfortable homewear. When she came out, she found Freya playing with Maya, and Ethan was gone.
Maya informed her, "Mr. Raynor said he has a meeting but will be available by phone."
Eleanor nodded in acknowledgment. Then, turning to Freya, she said, "Why are you only solving puzzles with Maya? Go to the music room and learn piano from her. You are a good singer, but being proficient in an instrument will help you with your singing too." 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝙚𝔀𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝒐𝒎
She then turned to Maya. "Maya, I am going to the study. Stay until dinner. I might have more work for you."
Maya groaned. "Nooo, I don't want to work anymore."
Eleanor ignored her complaints and walked to the study. She spent time rearranging her schedule and future plans. Just as she was about to leave, Teresa called to inform her that she had secured the targeted 30% shares of Sage Enterprise. Both parties would come to Heimdall tomorrow.
Relieved, Eleanor left the study in a good mood, had dinner, and then saw Maya off. Before she left, she demanded to know the relationship between Ethan and her. She said the same she told to Teresa.
The next morning, when Eleanor arrived at Heimdall, she found that the director of Sage was already waiting. After settling into her office, she called her legal team and instructed them to bring the director in.
A few minutes later, they entered the room. Eleanor stood up and greeted them. "Welcome to Heimdall. I am Eleanor Elizabeth Raynor, Chairman of Heimdall Technologies. It's nice to meet you."
There were two of them. One extended his hand. "I am Elijah Hughes, Director of Sage Enterprise. It's a pleasure to be here."
The other man extended his hand as well. "I am Isaac Cooper, also a director of Sage."
