“HAPPY BIRTHDAY,” DEANNA SAYS as she walks up to my desk,
holding a piece of cake on a plate and grinning like she knows something I
don’t.

--- --- --- --- ---
Christ, she’s a vile human.
Pen in hand, I lean back in my chair and try to seem as casual as possible
even though Satan’s hangnail is standing right in front of me. “Thank you.”
I nod toward the cake in her hand. “I see that you’re enjoying the
festivities.”
“And I see that your cake choice is just as bland as your face.”
See…Satan’s hangnail.
“Marion chose that cake. I dare you to say that to her.” Marion is the
mother of the office, the crotchety old lady who has hung on to the job since
Reginald Hopper started Hopper Industries. Once a sophisticated boss lady
in a pencil skirt and pill hat, she’s now an elderly woman who complains
about needing a permanent but never books herself an appointment, lending
her to sport a more Albert Einstein-like look. If you ask me, I think she’s
rocking it.
Deanna’s lips purse and she shifts, clearly not taking the bait. No one
messes with Marion, not even Reginald. Hence why her job responsibilities
include cake ordering, fridge restocking, and overall crankiness.
“Have you heard that Daddy Reggie is making a decision about the new
arm of the business after Princess Haisley gets married?”
Firstly…Haisley is anything but a princess. Haisley Hopper is so
misunderstood within the company. The youngest of the three Hopper kids,
she has stepped away from Hopper Industries and, with her own money,
invested in a vacation rental house that she redecorated and themed to Dolly
Parton in Nashville. From the earnings and revenue, she invested in another
house here in San Francisco that she themed around the movie Clueless.
And from what I’ve heard, she’s expanding even more.
Secondly, the term “Daddy Reggie” is only used around the lower-level
employees in the office and if he ever heard that’s what we call him, we’d
find our asses hitting the curb.
Thirdly…how does she always know this insider information? Drives
me nuts. I swear she never works, just hovers around the office like a
fucking troll, listening in on conversations and logging it away to annoy me
later.
“Yeah, I heard that,” I lie. I never show my cards to this woman. “You
nervous?”
“Not in the slightest,” she says with a grin that makes her lip curl into a
snarl that would scare the dead skin off any snake.
I click the top of my pen, keeping my eyes trained on her. “Maybe you
should be.”
She rolls her eyes. “Please. The Hopper family will be coming off the
high of an extravagant wedding in Bora-Bora. Their heads will still be
ringing with wedding bells, and when they’re presented with the two ideas,
they’re going to be more attracted to my wedding services proposal than
your idiotic boutique rental proposal.”
It’s not idiotic.
It’s actually quite intelligent.
A business proposal that not only helps the city’s economy but also
Hopper Industries. Deanna just can’t look past her inflamed eyelids to see
that.
Keeping my face neutral, I say, “Well, I guess we’ll see.”
“Just admit it, you’re scared.”
