Zane nodded. “They brought both breakfast and dinner for this trip.”
“How’s the weather look for our flight?” Clay asked.
“Should be a very smooth flight.”
They left the cockpit.
“I like them,” she said. “They seem very nice.”
“We’ve been friends with Zane and Maddox since we were kids,” Jay told her. “Same with Roberto and Miguel. We all went to school together.”
“Private school, I bet.”
“Nope,” Clay said. “Mom was a teacher in public school and thought we would get a well-rounded education there.”
She was surprised to hear that. “Your mom was a teacher?”
Jay smiled. “Mom and Dad didn’t grow up rich. She loved education and wouldn’t give it up, even though Dad had built GWI into a global powerhouse. Our parents were quite common and wanted to make sure we appreciated all we had.”
Having read the company’s history on the website, she’d learned that Clay and Jay’s parents had died, along with their aunt, in
a tragic accident.
“It’s very clear to me how proud you both are of your parents’ accomplishments.”
“We are,” Jay said. “We miss them very much.”
She couldn’t get over how open he and Clay were. Most men she’d been around kept their feelings buried, unlike them. It was refreshing and endearing to be around Clay and Jay.
Clay smiled. “Let’s get our drinks from Anne, and then we’ll finish the tour of the jet.”
She smiled back at him. “I’d really like that.”
When they got back to the lounge, Anne handed them their beverages.
Izzy took a sip. “This Mimosa is perfect. Thank you.”
“I’m going to finish setting up the dining room until it’s time for the plane to take off. Do you need anything else?”
“No, we’re fine,” Jay said. “Thank you, Anne.”
“Are you ready for the tour, Izzy?” Clay asked.
“Absolutely.”
They passed through the luxurious dining room, where Anne was making things ready for them. Delicious aromas filled the air.
“I think your two chef friends prepared more than just bagels and fruit for us.”
“Smells like they did to me, too,” Clay stated with a smile.
The next space was an office, appointed beautifully with a large oak desk, two overstuffed leather chairs, and top-of-the-line equipment. Everything a corporate executive needed.
The final private space they showed her was a bedroom, along with its own en suite. “Even a shower?”
“It comes in handy,” Clay said. “Especially with long trips.”
“Is that a king-sized bed?”
