Rachel had been waiting under the scorching sun for half an hour when Hera finally arrived and was understandably annoyed.

Ever since she had been promoted to Rhett's secretary, her status had risen. Even Frederick showed her some respect. Yet, Hera dared to keep her waiting under the sun for half an hour! "Did you get lost on your way here, Ms. Youngworth? You're quite late," she said sarcastically.

"And who asked you to speak?" Rachel cut him off.
