There it was. That tone.
He talked as if he were looking out for his girlfriend.
A smirk crossed Dorothy's lips as a chuckle escaped her. "Thanks for the concern, boss."

Night fell.
Dorothy came back to the hotel, took a shower, video-called her daughter, and then finally opened her laptop to work.
Lane had already sent over the new project's details, and she glanced over the information. The due diligence on this project shouldn't be too challenging, but they'd need to focus on the partner company's certification.
Usually, in this agro-industrial processing sector, some corners were cut when it came to product certification and dealings with the Bureau of Industry and Commerce. But unless it was something too ludicrous, it shouldn't cause major problems. Her team had to thoroughly investigate all potential risks when conducting their due diligence to avoid any unpleasant surprises after the contract was signed.
Before opening the detailed information, she picked up her phone to order a cup of coffee.
Suddenly, something came to mind, and she quickly opened WhatsApp to search for a conversation.

She'd already deleted him once, so it was the least she could do to help him with the invoice. She felt that it was her duty.
By the time Dorothy had placed her coffee order, he had replied.
