Next to Marsha stood Hazel, her assistant, dressed casually and wearing a mask. Many fans identified her as Marsha's assistant.
Marsha steered clear of the crowd and took a seat by the entrance of the busy examination room, grumbling, "That Charles never givesany special treatment. Damn him."

She reclined in her chair, feeling aimless and downcast.
After a brief pause, she turned to Hazel and asked, "Isn't there any way to handle this man?" Hazel gave a faint smile and remained silent. She always sensed there was something unique about the relationship between Marsha and Charles.

She couldn't fathom what the headlines would read the next day. The mere thought of it made her anger surge uncontrollably.
