“This is an interesting office.” He looked around. “Nothing creepy about a giant room with nothing in it but a huge desk and guy in a seven-thousand-dollar suit.”
“How did you know how much my suit cost?”
“It’s Brunello Cucinelli, isn’t it?”
“You have a good eye for designers.”
“It’s my superpower. Too bad I have champagne taste and a mocktail budget.”
Smiling despite myself, I waved to the chair across from me. “Have a seat.”
“Sorry, I don’t have business discussions with people who don’t introduce themselves first.”
“My apologies.” I extended my hand. “Evan Williams.”
He took another step closer and shook it. His skin was warm and soft, but damp, betraying his nerves.
“And you are?” I asked.
“Like you don’t know.” He snort-laughed and flopped down on the chair with a theatrical flounce.
“Actually, no. I don’t know.” I sat as well.
“You expect me to believe you’re going to offer me oodles of money for a job, yet you didn’t look me up? That seems like a dumb move for someone who has armed security and a guy outside the door who’s packing.”
“You think I’m dumb?”
“Not sure yet. Maybe.”
“Would your opinion of me change if I told you I did have Vlado look you up, but he didn’t share the information with me?”
“Vlado is the hottie with the tats and the smile?”
“Yes. He’s also the head of my security and my private bodyguard.”
“Huh.” He drummed his fingers on the arm of the chair. “Jury’s still out on whether you’re dumb, but the odds are in your favor.”
“Good to know.” I gave him a pointed look. “And your name?”
“Nick Sorensen.” He chewed his lip. “So what’s this job?”
My phone rang.
“Excuse me.” I answered Vlado’s call. “Yes?”
“The other guy came back clean, but I figured out where I know him from.”
“Where?”
“Let’s just say he’s been in some videos I’ve watched late at night when I’m relieving tension.” I could hear my friend’s smirk.
“Are you saying what I think you are?”
“If you think I’m saying he’s a pornstar, then yes.”
“Thank you for the information.” I hung up.
“What was that about?”
