Jerome’s expression softened when he saw who was calling. He swiped open his screen,

Mikayla was dissatisfied and sought to prove her capabilities in the Miller Group.

“Mrs. Miller, it’s not easy to get a cab here. Why don’t you go to the company with Mr. Miller, and I’ll send you back later?”

“No need. Just pull over here.”

Mikayla had no intention of spending another minute with Jerome.
