Chapter Sixteen

Ariel watched January on his computer as she slowly walked along the hallway on the third floor. Despite his reservations about Dominic, the young man and January got along, so Ariel had arranged for them to complete a project together. His regular staff members didn't have the time so it had to be a temp. Besides that, Ariel had noticed that some of the temps spent time together in the break room. He'd also noticed that some left the building together.

It was easy for him to see what was going on from his office’s computer. He felt that January was too much of a loner.

Suddenly he leaned forward and tapped a button that allowed the camera to zoom in. Scotty Montgomery was back, carrying a folder in his hand.

He must be here to drop off his proposal.

Ariel watched as January and Scotty crossed paths. They stood facing each other. January smiled. Ariel tapped his finger against his shiny desk.

What could they possibly be talking about?

He clenched his teeth. It was moments like this that he wished the cameras came with audio. But it would mean more money and, overall, it wasn’t necessary. He never used to check the cameras everyday—until January showed up.

He gripped the pen in his hand when Scotty’s hand went to January's arm. She looked at the wandering hand as it slid down her right arm.

Ariel grimaced.

That’s enough.

Scotty was a wolf in sheep's clothing.

Ariel picked up his phone and dialed the extension for the human resources officer. He knew her office was near where January and Scotty stood. Her door was closed.

“Hello.”

“Ms. Waters, it’s Ariel.”

“Hi, Mr. Cunningham. How are you?”

Ariel went through the formalities briefly before getting to the point. “There’s a gentleman in the hallway, right outside your door, who’s come to drop off a proposal. Can you please escort him to Mary, now?”

Ms. Waters inhaled. “Of course, sir.”

She hung up.

Ariel watched as the office door open and the petite woman interrupted Scotty and January’s conversation. He smiled when January turned and walked away.

He narrowed his eyes as he watched Scotty follow Ms. Waters down the hallway.

Ariel sat up straight when, just before he saw the top of the man’s head, Scotty looked straight up into the camera.
