Never Mistake a Queen for a Lapdog novel Chapter 977

On Secretary Lynwood's way to deliver the invitations to Felix, Madeline called.

Because Madeline often called Felix, sometimes he was in meetings or business negotiations and couldn't answer. When she couldn't reach him, she would contact Secretary Lynwood.

Secretary Lynwood knew Felix highly valued Madeline, so his attitude toward her was always respectful.

Since they shared the same surname, Secretary Lynwood tended to look out for her.

Madeline was very good at playing the game, often sending him small gifts to build a rapport.

So whenever there was any movement on Felix's end, Secretary Lynwood would leak it to Madeline.

Things like who he met or what his schedule was, creating opportunities for her.

"Miss Lynwood, Mr. Quigley is still in a meeting. He said he'll come over for your appointment as soon as he's done."

Madeline smiled. "I know, he told me earlier. I just wanted to ask if he's eating at the office for lunch or coming to my place so I can order food."

"He's eating at the office," the secretary replied.

Madeline let out a soft sigh, sounding a bit disappointed.

Secretary Lynwood, adept at reading the room, caught her mood and added, "By the way, Miss Lynwood, Mr. Quigley just had me secure two invitations to the Apex Auction happening in two days."

Hearing it was an Apex event, Madeline's eyes lit up. "I know about that one! They have a jewelry session. It's so popular that a lot of people I know couldn't get invites."

The secretary smiled over the phone. "Exactly. That's why Mr. Quigley had me use his connections to get two."

"Why didn't he tell me?"

"He probably wanted to give you a surprise."

Madeline's heart soared. "Then you absolutely can't tell him I know!"

Secretary Lynwood chuckled. "Understood."
