Page 86 of Alice Carver Manifests Her Perfect Life
‘The merger, Alice. I’m meeting the consultants. The job snippers.’
‘Oh.’
‘I can’t afford mistakes, Alice.’
Gosh, he was even more sexy when he was rattled (even if I didn’t understand why he was worried about his job) – sort of extra cold and ruthless. And we were in his office. I was feeling more and more turned on.
‘Look,’ I said, biting my bottom lip which I know he likes. ‘I haven’t told anyone. And I don’t intend to. But it’s your call… ’
Guy’s gaze raked down over my body.
‘And that, Alice, is what makes you particularly attractive,’ said Guy Carmichael, taking a step towards me.
There was a polite knock, and then the door opened, and Iris poked her head round.
‘Oh,’ she said, ‘I thought you’d finished.’
‘Sorry,’ I said, ‘I just took the opportunity to quickly ask Guy about my 360.’
‘Come in, Iris,’ said Guy, without missing a beat. He stood back so I had to walk past him and he whispered to me, ‘I’ll give you a full 360 whilst you’re sitting on my face later.’ Then he said, at normal volume, as my neck burned, ‘Good work, Alice. Thanks.’
Filthy fucker.
In one word:

Re: Discover Hunting and Baby Animals Easter version
Hi Harry,
Ahead of Monday’s Product Development, can I just check that you are still absolutely set on the Easter Discover publication? In our conversation yesterday, you mentioned wanting to solely use material from Hunting for Boys and Baby Animals for Girls and turn this into a generic Easter animals book for boys and girls with a focus on baby animals – namely puppies, countryside (no religion) and an emphasis on fun and chocolate. I mentioned that this could be tricky. Have you had a chance to think about this further?
KR,

No need to think further. Just pull out the pictures of baby animals and remove the dead animals, JJ and old-fashioned kids. Why haven’t your team done anything? Update please.
