CHAPTER NINE

EMILY

––––––––

Julie arrives mid-morningand takes me on a tour of the office, introducing me to loads of people.I’m so stressed that I don’t remember anyone’s names.

Most comment on my British accent and tell me it’s adorable.

“Restrooms are through here, and...oh, here’s Terri.”Julie smiles.“She’s another one of the personal assistants, so she can help you get settled in.”

I could do with a friend.Not that I can share anything with anyone.I can’t wait to speak to Lexi later tonight.

“Hey!”Terri greets me with a friendly smile.“Welcome aboard.”

I start to relax.

It was a terrible start, but if I can make some friends and show Sebastian I can put what happened behind us, then perhaps I’ll get to stay.

“Thank you,” I reply.

“Oh cool, you’re British,” Terri says.“Let’s head downstairs.I’ll show you the café and the courtyard where all the smokers go.”

“I’ll leave you girls to it.”Julie answers her phone, giving us a wave.

“I don’t smoke, but I’m keen to see everything.”I follow her down the hallway.

“Me neither, but it’s a cool hang out.”Terri grins, leading me down a large sweeping staircase that joins two of the floors.“So where in England are you from?”

“London.”

“Your accent is so cool.My friends are going to love you.You must come out with us on Friday.Are you into clubbing?”
