Chapter 43

“Why did this man go to you? Surely, as Mr. Burke’s executive secretary, this would be my concern.”

“He recognized your voice. From its tone, he could tell you were having quite a…good time with your partner. He didn’t want to interrupt, so he left.

“Did you need anything else, sir?” she asked.
