Julian’s Stand-In Wife

Sue had never come across someone as rude as this boss. He was yelling so loudly at her, at a decibel that exceeded what she was used to. Her hand trembled in fright.

Knowing that her daughter was standing right next to her, Sue forced herself to remain composed.

Cecilia, however, thought her mother was just like a little girl. To think Sue would get so easily frightened by someone yelling.

Cecilia was about to take over the call, when the man said over the phone, “It’s true we’re running a business, but there are times when mistakes happen. Since things have come to this point, just don’t come again.”
