"Our governor would like you toe to City Hall. You're required to make your way to Room 25 on the 19th floor within an hour," the woman said in amanding tone.

"Sorry, I don't have ttoday," Zeke responded assertively.

The woman sneered, "No time? It seems the governor means nothing to you. Do you need the governor toe see you personally?" "I... I didn't mean that..." Zeke felt a bit apprehensive in the face of the woman's aggressive tone. He knew very well the consequences of offending the governor, especially since the governor was from the Petro family. No matter how he played his cards, he could not outmaneuver the Petro family.

"What do you mean, then?" The woman's tone grew even colder. Being the governor's long-tsecretary, she exuded a certain authoritative presence.
