Jeanette glanced uneasily at the closed office.

The secretary pondered and nodded with a touch of confusion. “True, she’s not one to smile often, but this level of anger is a first.”

“Ms. Randle, is… is Ms. Summers still here?”

Her voice was trembling, her small face anxious as if she was about to burst into tears.

Jeanette quickly stepped aside and said, “She is still here.”
