“You always move this fast with business?” I asked.

“When I know what I want.”

I nodded slowly and stood up, sliding my iPad and laptop back into my bag. “I’ll go over it tonight.”

“Do that.”

I started toward the door but paused before opening it. Something about him didn’t sit right with me. Not in a bad way… I just knew this nigga wasn’t normal.

“You don’t ask for much input for somebody hiring a designer,” I said without turning around.

“I asked for yours. That’s all I need.”

I glanced back at him over my shoulder. “You didn’t ask. You decided.”

A small smirk pulled at his mouth. “Same difference.”

I shook my head lightly and pushed the door open. “We’ll see.”

As I walked out, I could feel his eyes still on me, heavy, steady, like he wasn’t done with me just yet.

And for some reason…

I didn’t feel done with him either.

$$$$$

I left the property and pulled up on Laila at our office. I grabbed my bag and walked in, already dialing my lawyer. He picked up on the second ring, and I let him know I needed him to come by. He was only a few minutes away, which worked in my favor because I wasn’t about to sit on that contract all day, wondering what I missed.

Laila looked up from her desk as I walked in.

“You went already?” she asked, standing up.

“I went,” I said, setting my bag down and pulling my laptop out.

“And?”

“I’m waiting on my lawyer before I say anything,” I told her, unlocking my phone and pulling up the email Vaughn sent.

She walked around her desk and leaned against mine, trying to read my face.

“You smiling, but you trying not to,” she said.

“I’m not smiling,” I replied, even though I knew exactly what she was talking about.

“You are. You only do that when something goes your way.”

I didn’t respond. I just handed her the laptop so she could scroll through the contract while we waited.

A few minutes later, there was a knock at the door.

“Come in,” I called out.

My lawyer walked in, briefcase in hand, already in work mode.

“What we looking at?” he asked.

Laila handed him the laptop.
