Chapter 75: Mr. Segal

Carter adjusted his suit coat and looked over the calendar that was on his desk. He poked at dates with a pen and pulled his phone out to put them into it. He always worked better with alarms telling him when to get to events and places. He groaned as he realized how many tasks he had to do today. He already had two meetings. Granted one was impromptu, but still. It was enough for him already.

He ran his hand through his hair and shook his fist to look at his watch. It was almost time for his phone call with an owner of a small book shop. It was supposed to be about his company and getting his merchandise in their store, but he knew better than to think that was all he was going to be talking about. Carter took a deep breath and peered up to watch Ariana laughing with Adalee about something. Her smile made his day a million times better and he smiled at her.

She caught his gaze and bit her bottom lip with a smile as Adalee waved at him. He waved back right as his phone went off.
