ROBERT TANGO
Iâve pulled up my pants and zipped up, and Carter has cleaned herself too. Weâre getting ready to walk out of the bathroom.
She puts her hand on the knob and then quickly turns to me. âYou swear you have AMLP?â
I kiss the side of her face. âJack Lord and I are partnering for East Coast projects. Before AMLP went to Tom Roth, they begged Lord Construction and Development to take it.â
âAnd heâs taking it now?â
âYes, and Iâm his architectural partner.â
âDoes Tom know this?â
âHe will tomorrow.â
Finally, she chuckles. âAnd we just fucked in his bathroom.â
âHe fucking deserves it. Heâs a tool.â
âYou mean the tool box.â
We laugh, and I get to taste her mouth one more time before she opens the door and strolls into the dining room with the confidence I want her to have. However, I see that Hannahâs gone.
Grace is shaking her head. âClassy, Carter.â
âBeing that youâre the queen of the classless, I wonât take that as a compliment.â Carter snatches her purse off the back of her chair.
âAnd, um, since youâve got the contract with Tom over there all sewn up, Iâll just leave as well,â I say.
âTell your girlfriend that she might as well fly back to San Francisco and fuck you some more. Sheâs fired,â Grace says.
Carterâs already out of the dining room. I stop just before I make it out and turn around.
âYouâre doing the hiring and firing for Beatty now?â
Grace crosses her arms and smirks. âIâm running the San Francisco office of Metropolis, and my dad is chief architect.â
âThen that means you quit.â
She winks. âYou made it possible.â
Grace is referring to the clause that lets her quit if she wants. I figure itâs best for her to move fast on dissolving the contract before she finds out sheâs just bought a lot of swampland.
âWell, you better move fast, daddyâs girl, because tonight, Iâll be talking to my lawyers, and I will make it impossible for you to work for me and him at the same time.â
Grace narrows her eyes.
Tom wiggles his fingers at me. âBye now,â he says dismissively.
I could punch him in the throat, but itâs too lateâIâve already delivered a blow. I stroll out of the dining room like the lion he wishes he could be.
