Chrysalis
Chapter 1035

“The Colony delivered a few bags yesterday. They said it was a test batch. I’ll need you to fill in a survey when you’re done.”
“Hah,” she laughed. “I’ll be happy to. Drinking their tea has been one of the great pleasures of recent months.”

She eyeballed Terrence over the edge of her cup.
“And by the way, aren’t you the mayor's secretary?”
“Yes.”
“Then why are you here? I’ve resigned.”
“I suppose I’ll have to take the tea with me then….”
