Corynn soon put her encounter with Amanda out of her mind. She went with Erick to a business dinner with

a few clients, the main purpose of the meeting being to introduce her to them.

Corynn ignored their idle chatter and only chimed in to handle questions directed at her, questions that

involved her work.

meeting.
