to Terence Group the next day.

To his surprise, he ran into Beatrix just as she got out of her car at the

“If you aren’t a dummy, why did you respond when I called?” Beatrix chuckled.

If she wasn’t his boss, he would have considered snapping back.

was also her brother–in–law. She felt obligated to show him some respect.
