Before leaving, Josie went to the studio to hand over her duties. It had been a while since her last visit. Alice had been managing most of the work there and had even hired new staff members.

The unfamiliar faces of the new staff members showed confusion as they asked, “Who are you looking for?”

Josie smiled and looked around. Just then, she spotted Alice, who exclaimed in surprise, “Josie! What brings you here?”

Alice quickly grabbed her hand and introduced her to everyone. “This is Ms. Warren, one of the partners of the studio and your real boss.”

Several people greeted Josie at once.

Feeling a bit embarrassed, Josie said, “Don’t call me that. I won’t be for long.”

Alice’s expression changed.
