Bayles, come on.

A little eye candy never hurt anyone.

It's not that simple,Rach.

Look, I get it.

He's a pain.

But you're better than this, Bailey.

Don't let him get to you.

Easier said than done.

But still doable.

You've dealt with worse.

I stareat her message for a moment. She is right. I had faced tougher challenges in my life than Logan Fucking Atwood.

You're right,Rach.

I can handle this.

That's the spirit, Bayles!

Now go show him who's boss.

Boss Bitch Mode:Activated.

Reading our conversation again,I'm a little less annoyed, a little more empowered. I lock my phone screen and get back to my work for the morning.

* * *

It's after lunch break,and I still haven't heard a peep out of Logan.

He's probably somewhere floundering with this project.

I laugh to myself at the thought of Logan fumbling his way through the project. The image of him struggling with a task that didn't involve charming women or flashing his money was amusing.

Yes, karma is indeed, a bitch.

I'm about to immerse myself in the pile of papers on my desk, when an email notification pulls my attention away. The subject line reads: "Re: Logan's Analysis." I raise an eyebrow.

Already?

I click it open, and the content of the email makes my jaw drop. It's from our head of sales, a man known for his absurdly high standards.

"Bailey, I'm impressed. The analysis that Logan provided was fantastic. Detailed, insightful, and it pinpointed several areas where we can improve. Not what I expected from a newbie. You're doing a great job training him. Keep up the good work. - Carl"

I stare at the screen in disbelief.

This has to be a joke. Logan? Impress Carl?

I slam the laptop shut, my frustration bubbling over.

He's been here for one day and he's already the office hero?
