Loriel informed Marc that Elise couldn't come to work for several days because she was sick. Marc informed Alex about this so she wouldn't be looking for her assistant.
This, of course, created confusion on Alex's part. Shouldn't an employee call the office to inform them about their medical leave and the HR would notify their supervisor?
In Elise's case, it was the opposite. The big boss himself was the one to inform Alex so she could inform HR.
Elise was too OP, Alex thought to herself.
She had been wondering about the nature of the relationship between Elise and Marc since the beginning, but Alex didn't want to probe Elise about it. She did have her suspicions, but she always kept it to herself.
Alex suspected that Elise's and Marc's relationship was not simple. However, she brushed it off since Elise didn't seem like one of those beautiful women that Marc dated and tossed away after he was bored.
