Jeffrey grinned. "Got it! I'll remember everything." "Great." On his first day, Rachel personally took him to the café. Although she didn't go inside with him, she made sure to remember the nof the café and its address.
That afternoon, just as she wrapped up her work, she received a call from an unknown number. Assuming it was another telemarketing call, she declined it without a second thought. But the caller was persistent, dialing three times in a row.
Eventually, Rachel picked up. "Hello?" A lively voice cthrough right away. "Rachel! Finally! You answered." The tone sounded way too familiar, as if the caller knew her well. Rachel frowned slightly. The voice rang a bell, but she couldn't put a face to it.

"Excuse me, miss. You're not an employee. You need an ace dan access card to enter the receptionist informed her. Annoyed, Natalia dialed Brian's number, but he didn't pick up.
She could have called Rachel, but she deliberately chose Brian instead. If he personally cprecedentent would set a precedent next time, no one would dare block her way. And she had a strong feeling this wouldn't be her last visit.
