She felt that 1t would be indelicats

They went up in an elevator at one

stepped out at Reben's office door. A

Duane spoke to a respectful office

a nod as he rose to greet Duane.
Duane did the honors: "Mr. Reben.
I want to present you to Miss Kip

Reben greeted her with suavity and
his eyes were even more enthusiastic
than his words. Daphne was at hei
