“This shouldn’t take too long,” she admitted.
Looking at his watch, Quinn knew his wife was working late, so he wanted to go see her so he could tell her what he’d learned about the new director.
So, he went there.
“Director, do you mind if I go see what my wife is up to?” he asked.
Clearly, the man knew his way around the building.
So, she didn’t see any harm in that.
So, she smiled.
“Sure thing,” she said. “Just keep the visitor badge on. You know how twitchy the Feds can get or how Archangels get all riled up,” she teased, as her two bodyguards just rolled their eyes.
That he did.
When he headed one way, Johanna motioned for the captain to follow.
Dex did just that, since the detective was his ride back to the office. Oh, and he was absolutely curious too. He’d heard that there was a remodel in Elizabeth’s unit, and he wanted to check it out.
When they entered the area, it had definitely been revamped from the bullpen area with the cubicle desks to more of a space where they could move around more freely. In one corner was a coffee area, and a break room-like space, as the place looked out over the city.
Across from that, there was an office, and on the door was a placard that had Elizabeth’s name.
One wall was tricked out with giant screens, and on them, news was playing. It went from a small office space to a bigger one, proving that Elizabeth had built this place from the ground up.
In the area, Dex took a seat not far from Johanna and the man she was working with. Dex had seen him around, but he’d never met him.
So, he introduced himself to the man.
“I’m Captain Dex Corbin,” he stated, holding out his hand.
The agent stood and shook his hand in greeting, as Johanna parked her ass on the corner of his desk.
“I’m Brody Seaton,” he said.
He looked back and forth between the two agents, and they had the same last name. Since they didn’t look alike, he doubted they were siblings. So, he asked.
“Husband?” he inquired, jerking his head toward Johanna.
That amused her.
“Yeah, he’s the ball and chain, but he’s all mine,” she joked.
That made Brody laugh.
“Gee. I feel the love, Honey. Maybe tell him I leave my socks all over the place too and I pee in corners,” he joked.
She winked at her husband.
Brody shared with the captain.
“We’ve been with Elizabeth and this division since the beginning,” he stated. “I guess you could say we’re the old timers.”
That was amusing because the woman looked like she was barely twenty-five, and the man couldn’t have been older than thirty-five himself.
“They like them young in the FBI,” Dex admitted.
