She was not even sure if he had recognized her at the first sight, just like she had as he walked past with a quick brush.

At the thought of that, Betty suddenly mocked herself with a faint smile.

Jeffrey took office and held a few meetings immediately to make some adjustments to personnel and the magazine’s positioning.
