The Double ( or More ?) Life of The Fake Heiress

Chapter 1560

Hank was feeling a bit rattled, but he quickly pulled himself together. After giving Joseph a polite nod, he turned to Dane and said, "Dr. Ray, you wanted to see me?"

Dane pointed to the couch, exuding authority without even trying. "Have a seat."

Hank muttered a quick acknowledgment and walked over to the couch. He sat down, clasping his hands on his knees, his back straight as an arrow.

After a moment's thought, Hank stood up again and lowered his head slightly. "I'm sorry, Dr. Ray. I didn't think this would make its way to you.
