"At one, you're scheduled to go horseback riding with Mrs. Olson. At four, you have a meeting with the Vice President of CreatWin Technology. Also, several financial magazines are requesting interviews. What should I tell them?" "Turn them down," Corrine said without hesitation.
She paused for a moment, then asked, "How's the planning for the industry summit coming along?" Natasha opened her mouth to respond, but before she could, Corrine's phone rang.
