"But it's not our fault. They're acting like we messed up." "We're in charge of this project. Any problems are on us. No excuses. If we don't want to deal with the fallout, we need to fix it," said, keeping my voice firm.

"What do you want, Ms. Twain?" I asked, keeping it formal.
Tanya was not only in the administration department but also appointed as a supervisor. Jace's actions were like a guy totally whipped, giving her the job despite the inevitable backlash.
