Chapter Four

Emily gripped her portfolio tightly in her hands as she walked inside the building that housed Alec’s offices. The building was sixty stories tall, and his offices took up ten floors. She had changed her outfit four times before she had left. Emily was sure that Sareh would have told her she looked straight from Amish country again, but she wanted to make sure she felt comfortable during the interview.

The main floor of the building was larger and more luxurious than any apartment Emily had ever seen before. It was sinking in now, against the backdrop of where Alec worked, how massively rich he was. Sure, he might go to clubs where normal people went, and even buy coffee from the tiny store Emily worked at, but Emily needed to remember he was billionaire status.

She took a deep breath and walked across the lobby. There was a fountain nearby, shooting up jets of water that changed color. People with phones either plastered to the sides of their heads or glued to their hands walked by, clearly on missions. All she saw around her were designer labels. The receptionist behind the marble desk looked supremely busy, and Emily felt bad even speaking for her.

“I have an interview with Alec Richardson-“

“He has his own receptionist on floor fifty.” The woman didn’t look up and kept typing away.

Emily slunk away from the desk, feeling silly. Her palms were sweating as she got into the elevator and clicked the button. A woman was in the corner of the elevator, lecturing someone loudly on some mistake they’d made. The woman got out on floor twenty and the rest of the ride was blissfully empty.

The doors slid open and Emily stepped out into a waiting room. The words RICHARDSON ESTATES were on the bottom of the granite desk in gold lettering. There was a glass table with chairs to wait in, and a flat screen TV showed the news. It was nicer than her apartment. Emily walked up to the desk, where a thin Hispanic lady looked up at her.

“Hi. I’m Emily Camp. I have an interview at 10 a.m. with Mr. Richardson.”

The woman’s eyes darted down to her outfit briefly, as if to say: No you don’t, honey. Instead, she clicked on the computer a few times.

“ID please.”

“Oh! Sure.”

Emily fumbled through her purse for a minute before handing the woman her ID. The woman checked it and handed it back to her.

“You can have a seat over there. You’re early.”

Tucking a string of brown hair behind her ear, Emily sat gingerly down in one of the seats that faced the TV. She wondered if the lady had only checked her ID because she didn’t look like anyone Alec normally brought in, or if she did that to everyone. She caught herself rubbing her palms on her dress and made herself stop. Her throat felt parched. The TV seemed to blend together in front of her eyes as she debated how she was going to handle this interview.
