The Phone Call

For some reason, the idea of actually working with Michelle has fired her up. Claire remembers her last encounter with Michelle, here at the office as Bella, and Michelle seemed to like her. It must be a strange twist of fate. And if Michelle indeed arrives tomorrow, then it's going to be interesting to see how that plays out.

Now, first things first. Claire must start learning the ropes with this company. Gabriel said he's opening the path for her learning. It's only a matter of formal training. Claire's smart, anyway; she could easily learn about the business. It's also the first time Claire realizes maybe she has a long-term future in the company, after her initial 30-day contract with Gabriel. Maybe. Gabriel's issuing a memo later this afternoon, informing Claudia's team to "adopt" Claire as an intern. "But not an intern 'intern'," Gabriel clarified. "You'll be acting as my representative, so I'll remind Claudia to treat you very nicely."
