My Wife is an Aloof Beauty

Chapter 142 Honey, Did You Skip Breakfast Again

Daisy had been busy all morning writing out the exercise programs, training, and investigating the field -- all urgent. She got some water and breathed a sigh of relief, happy to take a break.

She was about to sit down to do more work when her phone rang. She picked it up, without checking the caller's ID.

"Hello, Daisy speaking." She thought it polite to identify herself first when on the phone.
