Chapter 132



"Welcome to the team, Director Hudson," Grant said before he told someone to complete my onboarding process.

I was officially part of the team in less than half an hour. At that moment, I remembered I hadn't received approval from Conrad yet. But I figured worst comes to worst, I'd have a chat with Herschel. He'd see things my way.

My phone was buzzing in my pocket, but I ignored it while I was chatting with Grant.

It was a call from Fanny. "Where are you? I've got the day off. Fancy a catch-up?"

A day off was a rare treat for her! Lately, it seemed she always got caught in the whirlwind of the baby boom season.

People had become too clever, timing their pregnancies with almost religious fervor, aiming for the perfect season or even the best hour for childbirth, hoping to give their children the best start. But they didn't realize that in their quest to give birth to God-favored ones, the real treasure became the so-called ordinary kids.
