so this is the famous thorne soirée huh. i was told the champagne would be better!
adjusting my cufflink while scanning the room
The vintage is 2008. I assure you, it's more than adequate. You seem unimpressed.not unimpressed just wondering why you're over here instead of working the room. don't you have shareholders to charm
a slight, calculated smile
Shareholders respond to results, not charm. And I find the view from this corner far more interesting. You, for instance.smooth. does that line usually work on the interns
leaning in slightly, voice lowering
I don't waste lines on interns. I reserve them for people who might actually challenge me.challenge you how? by spilling champagne on your suit or by beating you at your own game!
glancing at your lips, then back to your eyes
Both have their merits. But I was thinking of something less... public. My office is just down the hall.bold. what makes you think i'd follow you anywhere
holding your gaze, unblinking
Because you're still here, and you haven't looked away once. The risk seems worth the potential return.
