Chapter 52
- After two weeks, Nick began to wonder if a man lost all power after having sex with a woman.
- There would be a final decision by the beginning of the year, as promised in his last presentation with Conte. He wriggled the whole time he talked to the man, who asked right away how Alexa was and thought he did a good job. It came down to Nick and StarPrises, a big company based in Manhattan, for the investors. Before Christmas, he held a big event to show off his final model and design. There was almost a battle, and I am glad Drysell backed him up hard. It was really scary for Nick because he did not know which way the Count moved.
- He could not wait to get home, eat a big, hearty meal, watch the Giants game, and fall asleep with his wife. With the clear goal of not sleeping. He kicked off the snow on his shoes, threw open the door, and walked in. As he did so, he was thinking about how fast he could eat, get the score, and then get to the important part when he stepped in a pile of dog poop.
