“Shaun, Selena isn’t—oh, I’m sorry. I didn’t know you were in a meeting.”
That voice. I slowly turned my head, and our eyes met.
“Stranded girl?” Carter cocked his head.
“Carter?” My brows furrowed.
“Wait a second,” Shaun said. “This is stranded girl? Your name is Zoey?” He looked at me.
“You’ve been talking about me?” I glanced at Carter as he walked over and stood next to Shaun’s desk.
“Yes.” He smiled. “After all, you were the reason I missed my meeting with Shaun yesterday. What are you doing here?”
“First of all, I didn’t ask for your help. So, if you missed your meeting, that is not on me. Second, what are you doing here?” I cocked my head.
A sexy smirk crossed his lips. “Shaun and I work together.”
“So, you work for Sterling Capital?” I asked.
“No. I have my own company called Carter Management Group down the hall.”
“Miss Morgan is interested in leasing one of my buildings over on Baker Street and found an error in the monthly rent. She also seems to think I’m charging too much per square footage,” Shaun said.
Carter chuckled as he sat in the chair next to me.
“So, this is the big plan you told me about yesterday? What kind of shop are you looking to set up?”
“I’m not so sure that’s any of your business.” I smirked as I stared into his gorgeous blue eyes.
CHAPTER 7
Zoey
Well, it is my business because it’s my building,” Shaun chimed in.
“A building you’re charging way too much rent for.” My brow arched. “I still don’t understand how you didn’t realize that the difference in the total monthly rent didn’t equal the square footage.”
“Like I said, Zoey. It’s okay if I call you Zoey, correct?”
“Yes. It’s fine.”
“My real estate department handles that. It was a clerical error.”
“I don’t think it was, Mr. Kind. Two weeks ago, the square footage was not that high. In fact, I’ll pull up the listing now.” I pulled my phone from my purse. “Interesting.”
“What?” Shaun asked.
“The listing is gone.”
“That’s impossible.” He turned to his computer.
“Morgan, eh?” Carter said.
“What?” I glanced at him.
“Your last name is Morgan.” He smiled. “Zoey Morgan.”
“If you’re thinking about stalking me, you can forget it.” I narrowed my eyes at him, and Shaun chuckled.
