Still, she decided that there was no hurry-Sam’s office was spacious, so it would not affect them working together.

Quinn frowned. “You mean there’s no meeting?”

“Not in the morning today-just one at 3 PM,” Danny quickly said.

Quinn was left further perplexed. “Well, where’s Sam? Is he out with a partner or doing rounds?”
