The receptionists were caught off guard, clearly flustered. They hadn't seen this coming. Who would've thought that this woman could actually summon Teddy with such a commanding tone? Panic started to set in among them. One of the receptionists nudged the leader of their group and whispered, "Does she have the same last name as the CEO's fiancée? Could they be related?"
