When they reached the door, George said in a low voice, “Al, why do I feel like Mommy‘s still acting

decisions, while Serene handled the minor ones. Half a month‘s worth of documents were piled up on
her desk. Adina spent the whole morning looking through project files that had yet to be archived.
It had to be said that Duke was very proficient when it came to managing a company. Many of the more
complicated and troublesome cases were handled quite easily thanks to his methods. After she had

had risen to a new level.
