Chapter 87

• Jacobs pulled into the parking lot, feeling relieved that after spending close to thirty minutes in traffic, he had finally arrived. He wondered why he came back here and not just home to Julia’s baby smell, as he waited for the elevator to arrive. Simone, this very talented graphics designer, stepped out from the elevator them and flushed when she saw him, hurrying away. As soon as he got to his office and settled down, his thoughts went back to Stephanie and the shit show that blew up in their faces recently.
• Jacobs fought the urge to call everyone and ask where Steph lived- her real home this time and going to hom and apologizing for the mess he created. Her life would have been better if he did not make a stupid move without thinking about what could go wrong.
• He rushed blindly into it, and now she could not show her face at work. He wanted to beg her, make her see how important working for him meant. She was the best PA he had had in years, and even more, he knew he would be a fool to let a woman his heart yearned for getting away without trying to win her back.
