Adeline walked past the desks that sat in an open floor plan and into the boardroom. A large oil painting of giant handcuffs hung on the opposite wall, and in the center of the room was a large mahogany table. Around said table were some unhappy faces. Well, all except Melanie, she was pacing the room.
“Where the fuck have you been?” Melanie stopped pacing long enough to glare at Adeline. “Really? The client’s been waiting nearly an hour.”
Adeline shrugged and had a shit-eating grin on her face as she fell into her seat next to Sunday before setting her bags onto the table in front of her. “Sorry, my lunch break lasted longer than usual.”
“Told you so,” Sunday said, a little too happy.
Adeline winked at Sunday. “No one knows me better than you do.”
“Depends what truck stop we go to, I’m sure there’s a few bathrooms that have poetry written in your honor and we could learn a thing or two.” Olivia reached into her pocket, pulled out some money, and handed it over to Sunday, obviously having lost a bet. Sunday grinned triumphantly, tossed Adeline half the take, and turned back to her laptop.
Adeline flipped Olivia off and laughed, knowing full well that Olivia’s harsh barb was only a joke.
“Well, now that we’re finally all here, can we interview the client already?” Melanie asked, glaring between the two of them.
“Fine by me,” Sunday said, clearly not really paying attention, she was too absorbed in her computer.
“Who’s the client anyway?” Adeline asked.
“Some lady.” Sunday never lifted her eyes from her laptop screen.
Adeline rolled her eyes. “You think? I was assuming that we were still Iron Ladies and not men. But, then again, maybe you all voted to change that while I was out.”
Olivia sighed. “How about I bring her in for the interview, and thereafter you two can argue about whatever gender you think the client is?”
“Whoa, someone’s in a bad mood today.” Adeline let out a low whistle.
“Adeline, you’re late . . . again. You come in here with this I-don’t-care attitude. But, damn it, I know you well enough to know that, if I look in those bags, there is probably something for me in there that I’m going to love.” Olivia slapped her hands onto the table as Adeline leaned forward, reached into the aforementioned bags, and pulled out the most awesome black leather vest.
“I’ll get her.” Melanie headed toward the boardroom doors. “And for goodness’ sake, Olivia. Put that thing away.”
“Yeah, Olivia, put that thing away.” Adeline smiled as Olivia gathered her oil rag and kit to start reassembling her baby Glock…
