Unless he heard Brantley absolutely wrecking me in his office, which is a real possibility. I have no idea how much noise we made, but I really hope the senior partners on the other side of this floor didn’t hear everything.
But he doesn’t respond or clarify at all. He gives me a pointed look, one I’ve given Colin to imply I know what he’s done, and leaves.
I don’t think the cookies will work.
I’ve made an enemy, and something tells me he’s not the forgiving type.

Wellness check. Kinsley, how is your vagina? Have you given that poor girl a break since your hotel surprise last weekend?
Holly
Shut the front door.
What surprise? What am I missing?
Ava
Time to take a lunch break.
Daisy
Girl, you know it’s four in the afternoon, right?
Ava
Afternoon tea?
June
Wait. What do you know, and how do you know it?
Daisy
I might have met a new client in a certain law office. You know, the one our suspiciously quiet friend works in.
Kinsley
I’m not suspiciously quiet. I’ve been busy.
Daisy
Yeah, riding that D. I don’t think any of us actually believes you’ve been MIA all week because of work. Also, June, shame on you for holding out on us. I can’t believe I lasted this long.

I’m hiding in the ladies’ room. I’ll need to be back at my desk in five minutes. No rush, but also rush.
