The Understated Dragon Lord novel Chapter 755

To express his discontent, Beckett asked Jessica, “Jessica, are there no other people left in TMO?"

Jessica was puzzled by his question and asked back, “Beckett, what do you mean by that?”

“Jessica, even though TMO amounts to nothing compared to TPO, it’s still the top company in New York! You’re a nationally recognized corporation, maybe even among the top 100 in the USA.
