Novel & Cerita Mutually Satisfactory Arrangements

“And the board would support it because it gives a facade of stability.” An idea that had been forming in my head for a few days now. I had not dared to bring it up but with Daniel and Liam on my neck, I'm going to have to fight back even harder. Exhaustion lowered the edge of my restraint and for the first time in weeks I spoke without thinking. I walked slowly around my desk and stopped in front of him. “do you believe in mutually beneficial arrangements,” I asked. “That depends on the terms,” he said. I studied his expression and found him calm.

He had an irritated expression, “I’m a busy man Miss Dubois. I have work to do. You’re on my time now. This is a business arrangement, nothing more. I’ll let you know when I can fit you in.” She nodded and bit her tongue. Well, thanks for making that crystal fucking clear, she mused. He’d just pencil her in for fucking when it was convenient to his schedule. Perhaps she should book an appointment with his secretary. She turned her back and left the room quietly as she was expected to do. Well so far, this was turning out to be a fucking fairy tale indeed.
