Life is going according to plan, both professionally and privately, for chief secretary Connie. As the wife of nice Dirk, mother of an adult daughter who is expecting her own first child, or as her boss' right hand, she has everything under control. Until the CEO's son takes over the business and places new demands on his employees: In the future, English will be the business language. English?
