“Okay, lead the way!” Roxanne nodded with a smile and grabbed her handbag as she entered.

“I’ll look at it myself. I have a record of the previous analysis, so you don’t have to remind me about it.”

That response was typical of her, so Sasha thought little about it until she noticed a red spot on Roxanne’s exposed neck when she bent over.
