“Our relationship has greatly improved since I had my “breakthrough.” Or at least Cubby likes me better. This scrubbed version of me, anyway. I put in my notice at Le Toile and inform Cubby that I’m considering something new, career-wise, possibly something in security.

Questions about the restaurant plunge him into a mysteriously dark mood.MoreLessRead More Read Less
