She had to deal with the old foxes in the business world and handle the socialite wives of the high-society circle at he same time. Mia Carter was being stretched thin.

Schedule a meeting with the CEO of Vanguard,” Ethan said, checking his watch. “Tonight.”

Leo was stunned. “Huh?”

Before he could react, Ethan was already walking out with the files for his meeting.

Meeting who?” Leo’s brain couldn’t keep up. “Vanguard’s CEO? Richard Vance? For what?”

He had a dozen questions, but there was no one left to answer them.

Mia had barely left Mrs. Gallagher’s side before she hit the news.

Reporters had snapped photos of her, claiming she was trying to force her way into the Everett business circle by ozying up to socialite wives. However, her background had been thoroughly exposed. Aside from being highly ‘alued by Ethan, she had zero pedigree. The high-society wives supposedly didn’t buy her act at all.

Mr. Hale is in a high-level meeting. I’ll patch you into the meeting remotely. There are some work arrangements egarding both branches that require your participation anyway,” Leo whispered over the phone.

Okay,” Mia replied. “I’m ready now.”

She opened her laptop, logged into the company’s meeting software, and waited for Leo to connect her.

The video conference opened quickly-so quickly that when Ethan’s sophisticated face appeared on the screen, Mia’s heart gave an uncontrollable throb despite her preparation.
