They rotated lunch breaks so that nobody had to handle the influx of calls alone while everyone else ate. Jamie ended up sharing a slot with Emelie, who looked as exhausted as she felt, slumped over the salad she'd brought from home.

“How is it going, Mrs. Reid?” Emelie asked as Jamie sat down.

Jamie huffed a laugh. “Honestly? About as bad as you'd think. And please call me Jamie. Seriously. We’re all in this together at this point. I think first names are acceptable.”

For a moment Emelie looked like she wasn’t sure about taking the offer, but then she smiled. “Alright. Jamie. I guess I can manage that, after everything that’s happened.”

“How are you doing?” Jamie asked. “I know that you had a bit of a rough week even before this happened.”

“If you call a paid suspension a rough week,” Emelie answered, one corner of her mouth quirking up into a smile. “Honestly, it wasn’t that bad. I mean, being suspected of being an evil genius embezzler isn’t really my idea of a good time, but it could have definitely been worse than it was. Turning out to be innocent helped.”

“I’m glad you turned out to be innocent, for the record,” Jamie said. “I didn’t believe it was you.”

“Who do you think it is?” Emelie asked. “Or, should I not ask that? I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have asked that.”

“It’s the question everyone wants to ask,” Jamie said. “I can’t really blame you for that. But I also can’t share any leads that we might have. I’m sure you understand.”

“Of course I do.” Emelie paused to take a bite of her salad. “I’m not usually so unprofessional. I’m a little run down from all of the calls, to be honest with you.”

“I think we’re all run down from the ridiculous number of calls,” Jamie said. “That’s really nothing to feel bad about.” She looked down at her own lunch for a moment, looking up again when Emelie didn’t reply. When she turned her attention to the other woman, the blonde was looking down at her phone, wearing an expression that didn’t promise good news. “Everything okay?”

Emelie shook her head. “It’s the press,” she said, looking up at Jamie. “They’ve gotten a hold of the story. They’re talking about the end of Reid Enterprises.”

Jamie stood up so fast she almost knocked her chair over, and Emelie turned the phone screen so that she could see it.

End of the Road for Reid Enterprises?

“Oh, you have got to be joking!”

Alex was going to be furious when he saw it. They were going to have to try to get something out ahead of it, before it completely ruined their reputation. That was what he’d been trying to do. Now it seemed too late. If the news spread too far, it wouldn’t matter how fast they got the investment portfolios back together, because the company would be done for either way.

“I’m sorry,” Jamie said. “I’m going to have to skip the rest of lunch.
