"Well…well, Mr. Martini how are you this morning?" Atlas looked up from the file he was reading when he heard the voice laced with sarcasm. He rolled his eyes when he saw his friend Albert walking towards him.
Albert made himself comfortable sitting on the chair across Atlas.
"Won't you ask me how our tour went? I have to admit your new secretary is quite interesting."
Albert let out a chuckle as he remembered their deal.
"What's funny?"
Atlas asked, his thumb and forefinger rubbing against his chin.
"Um...I can't tell you. It's our secret."
"Our? Secrets? I hope you're not referring to my secretary." Atlas spat the words through gritted teeth.
"Of course, I'm referring to Meredith. Who else?" Albert said with a smug look on his face.
"Meredith? You spent half an hour with her and you're now on first name bases?"
Something bitter dripped from Atlas's tone.
"Yes, I got my charms." Albert said as his eyes danced with mischief as he watched Atlas.
