Spoiled by the Silver Fox

Setting aside her utensils, Stephanie wore a trace of bitterness on her features. "Silver Fox, if you can defy the march of time and remain eternally youthful, why am I denied the same privilege? It seems everyone else gets a reprieve from aging, leaving me to bear the

Marilyn chimed in, "Exactly."

"Alright, alright, I'll shut up. Let's eat," Stephanie quickly dug into her food, only to hear Sebastian set down his fork. "Mrs. Bishop, you asked me for help finding a job. Well, I found one."

Marilyn's eyes lit up. "Which company?"

"Skyline Corporation..."
