I take a deep breath. Oh God, he’s going to be furious. But I have no choice but to tell after letting that slip.

“Do you know where she is making me sit at the office?” I ask.

William’s brow creases. “No.”

“You know the build-out section? Where nobody is? That is where she set me up. As far away from you as I could possibly be.”

I watch as William takes in my words. His jaw goes tight. He removes his hand from my face. And I see nothing but anger flickering in his eyes.

“Why,” he says, in a controlled voice, “did you not tell me about this sooner?”

“I am a big girl, William. I can deal with it.”

“This,” William says, “should not have to be dealt with. And I will rectify this first thing Monday morning.”

“William-”

“I should fucking sack her!”

“You and I both know you can’t do that.”

“Why not? I am William Fucking Cumberland! It should come handy from time to time to sack people like Arabella!”

I can’t help it. I know William is furious, but what he just said is so funny that I burst out laughing.

“What?” William snaps, obviously not amused.

“I am ‘William Fucking Cumberland,’ fear my wrath!” I say, laughing.

William pauses for a moment. My God, he actually looks sheepish! He rubs his hand over his face and groans. Then he begins to laugh, too.

“You know what? Let’s not talk about her anymore,” I say.

“I’m still taking care of this on Monday,” William says.

“Fine. But can we ‘Keep Calm and Carry On’ now?” I ask, teasing him.

William laughs. He steps closer to me and links my hands with his, squeezing them tightly.
