Bertha waved her off.

“Since when did you get so nasty? You're older, acting like this toward a young girl?”

“No, you've got it wrong...” Amya started but Bertha cut her off.

“You know Miley saved my life, yet you talk down to her.

Are you trying to test me? Or are you hoping | kick the bucket out there?”

Bertha’s tone was sharp and her words were cutting.

Amya’s voice softened.

“You're mistaken.

Bertha acted like she hadn't noticed.

She went over to Miley, taking her hand, and said, “Forget about her.

It’s lunchtime.

Let's head htogether.

Miley felt the warmth of her touch, warming her heart.

She gave a sweet smile.

“Sure thing.

Thanks.

She catered to a niche market but struggled to manage the increasing demand.

Recently, she reviewed several resumes, planning to hire an assistant.

While she worked, a figure caught her eye outside the door.

Looking up, she spotted Slater standing there.

He nodded when he saw her notice him.

Stella quickly masked her surprise and waved.

“What brings you here today? Water or coffee?”

Slater scanned the room.

The staff, though busy, maintained order.

“Coffee, please.

” He let out a sigh.

“You're managing the stuwell.

It seems like it will soon level up.
