“Maybe he wanted to protect me from you.”
“Maybe he doesn’t want a rift forming between his girlfriend and her best friend. Maybe he thinks it’ll create problems between them both. I don’t know and I don’t care.”
Okay.
“So you came here to…hit on me?”
“That and I might have an opening in my department for a recently liberated graphic designer.”
“Liberated. That’s a nice way of putting it.”
“I thought you’d prefer that to laid off or canned.”
“Oh,” I said.
“Oh? That’s it? I represent a multi-billion dollar company and that’s all you have to say?”
Is he fucking with me?
“I just thought that…” I blushed and didn’t finish the sentence under his intense stare. “It’s strange to drive all the way here just to talk about a job. On a Saturday. You could have emailed me.”
“I like to do this kind of thing in person.”
Working for Pardini Worldwide would be an incredible opportunity for me. I couldn’t pass it up, no matter how weird William was.
“Well, what’s the job?”
“You’d be the lead designer for a huge marketing campaign.”
I sat back for a moment, stunned. “That…sounds amazing.”
His face flashed with a brilliant smile. “I’ll tell you more about the job after I get to know you first.”
“Um, okay. What do you want to know?”
“Pardini Worldwide prides itself on its excellent customer service. How far are you willing to go to please a client?”
I turned the question over in my head as Will watched me. “I’m always happy to provide the client with multiple rounds of revisions until they’re satisfied.”
“Are you willing to work nights?”
Weird question. “Absolutely.”
“Let’s pretend I’m a client. If I call you at two in the morning, would you be willing to drop everything and service me?”
“Excuse me?”
Service him?
“Customer service. As I said, Pardini Worldwide prides itself on its unswerving customer support.”
My face burned. “Yes…I guess I would.”
“Would you be available at all hours?”
“Yes.”
“Would you be able to compromise your morals for this job?”
