Connor

CONNOR WAS FAIRLY CERTAIN that his brother’s personal assistant hated him. He’d accidentally hung up on two major clients while transferring their calls, leaving it to Connor to smooth things over by making pricing promises that he wasn’t sure he could enforce.

“Are you saying that you can’t find the Montgomery Design book, or that you haven’t bothered to contact the curators in Paris, London, and New York?”

Chris practically sneered at him. “I have more important things to do than check up on your little friend’s pet project.”

His little friend? The description was apt, but Chris’s snide tone was unwarranted and unwelcome. “Actually, as my personal assistant, you have nothing more important to do than what I ask of you.”

“When Mr. Montgomery gets back, he expects a full report from me about your performance here and there is nothing more important than what he tells me to do,” Chris countered.

Was the man insane? How could a subordinate evaluate his job... unless Drew had made that Chris’s main task while he was away? Hell, he wouldn’t put it past his brother. However, Connor refused to let the possibility deter him from helping Faith.

“Does that mean you’ll be shadowing me everywhere?”

“Almost everywhere. In fact, might I suggest you personally fly to London, Paris, and New York to check on the whereabouts of said book so little miss perfect doesn’t get in trouble?”

Now that sounded like a good idea. “Will you be accompanying me to those places?” Earlier he’d caught the tail end of a conversation between Chris and the lady who delivered the intra-office mail. Turned out Chris was petrified of flying because a psychic once told him that he would die in a fiery crash should he ever board one.

Chris’s eye twitched. “I always accompany Mr. Montgomery.”

“Except when he flies,” Connor countered.

“Except then,” Chris admitted.

“Thank you.” Connor logged into his brother’s computer to check the calendar. An idea was forming in his head, one that could be beneficial to Faith and to him.

“Can I get you anything else?”

“Actually, yes, call whoever handles the private jet for the company so that a crew can be put on standby.” He scrolled back several months. Drew hadn’t made any trips to their London or Paris locations—most likely due to Hannah’s pregnancy—for a while now. While the baby and Hannah were fine, Connor knew his brother wasn’t taking any chances of being on a different continent should something go wrong.

Chris pivoted, striding out of the office. “I’ll let you know what they say.”

“The answer is always yes and you will tell me immediately after you make the call, which will also be as soon as you leave this office,” Connor said. Chris paused, halfway out of the door. “Furthermore, you will do your job to the best of your abilities. I don’t care if that means you pretend that I’m my brother. Failure to do so will result in immediate termination without pay or benefits.”

He fully expected Chris to argue, but he simply nodded once instead.

“Be sure to close the door behind you and knock before you enter.
