How.convenient
Serena didn’t bother rephing. She just pushed the door open and stepped out.
The sharp bang cut off whatever else Howard had to say

Sarah scoffed. “Dad, did you see
Howard let out a cold sort. “Focus on getting closer to Mr. Cole, Doce Larson Group changes hands, we won’t have to put op with her anymore!”
Cutside, Zach was tending to Wendy, but he’d heard everything. He had come today to make things right with Serma, so there was no way he was letting this deal go up in flames. “Mena, 111 Lake Wendy to the hospital first After that —”
Wendy interrupted, “I’m sorry, Serena I shouldn’t be having an asthma attack at a time like this. I’ve ruined your collaboration with Zach… feel terrible. It’s all Zach’s fault. He was just too worried about me.
