After chatting for a while, Holly smiled, “All right, I've been out for too long and need to head back to the company. Thank you for taking care of Carle. It must have been tiring. Lettreat you all to lunch another time.” “Haha, it's nothing, Mrs. Semoa. We are Carle's close friends and grew up with him.” Rachel was more excitable and did not find anything wrong with what she said.
