Flesh: Part Three (The Flesh Series Book 3) (5 page)
I make my way to my
desk and am displeased to find Derrick sitting in my chair. He smiles
up at me expectantly. It looks like he doesn't have any intention of
moving, but then he notices my limp and quickly stands and makes way
for me to sit down. I pretend to ignore him as I take my seat and
pull the camera out of my purse, setting it on top of my desk.
“
You're not
talking, and you're not smiling.” He places his palms flat on
my desk as he leans over. “He didn't sign, did he?”
I sigh, not wanting
to deal with this right now. “There's always the next client.”
“
Damn it.”
He punches the top of the desk lightly. “What happened?”
“
You don't
even want to know.” I shake my head.
“
Worse than
the cookies?” He quirks an eyebrow.
“
Far worse.”
I press the button on my computer to bring it to life.
“
Want to talk
about it later? Maybe over drinks,” the pissed tone deflates
from his voice and melts into sympathy. I'm glad he didn't stay mad
at me for long.
“
I'll think
about it.” I give him a weak smile.
“
You know, I'm
always here for you, sweet pea.” He places a hand on my
shoulder.
I open up my email
and find it as expected. Empty. “Looks like there's nothing for
us today.” I turn to Derrick. “Did you get anything?”
“
Nope. It's
gonna be a long day of nothing.”
“
Maybe that's
for the best after the day I had yesterday.”
“
Oh look.”
Derrick points to my monitor.
When I turn to look
at it, there's an email from Tyra. The subject is
Lucian Reddick
.
Just seeing his name sends a chill racing through me. I don't want to
open it, but I know that Derrick is waiting to see what it says.
“
Open it.”
He nods towards the screen impatiently.
I take a deep breath
and click the subject line. The email reads as follows:
Amy,
Congratulations!
Doctor Reddick called to confirm that he'd like to sign a contract.
He raved about the good work you did, but told me that you were
having issues with the camera. He went ahead and sent a blueprint
over of his house so that we can get started right away. I've sent it
to Derrick so that he can work up a model of the house.
If you haven't
done so already, please contact the client to go over color schemes
for the different rooms, and use the pictures you already have along
with the attached blueprints to start shopping for furniture and
decorations.
Landing Doctor
Reddick is a big deal for all of us here at Environ Design. I'm so
proud of you for being an exemplary representation of our company.
Please continue to provide Doctor Reddick with excellent customer
service and support so that he'll spread the word about the great job
that our company does.
Regards,
Tyra Rollins
CEO of Environ
Design
My mouth falls
agape. No way. No fucking way did he sign the contract.
“
Looks
like you didn't do as bad as you thought.” Derrick gently slugs
me on the shoulder. I don't even have to look at him to know that
he's beaming.
“
I
can't believe it.” I shake my head.
“
Believe
it. He may be a bit of an asshole, but we haven't seen the last of
Lucian Reddick yet.”
