The Grass is Greener (2016)
“Thursday morning was no exception. What he didn’t expect was to bump into his junior lawyer, Claudia, in the line.
He refrained from bringing his presence to her notice immediately, content to just study her for a moment in dissatisfaction. He still hadn’t quite decided what he was going to do with her. When she had started yesterday he’d sent her a few files and decided to wait and see if she sank or swam. This time they were going to play by his rules, not hers.
Watching her unguarded movements was actually quite liberating.
Since their second meeting, in Cyril’s office, he had noticed that she only wore her hair up, in a loose but professional chignon. Almost as though dressing in that way improved her chances of being taken seriously. It was definitely a far cry from the sexy disarray she had sported in the hotel bar the day they’d first met, yet it did not detract from her youthful beauty. He certainly felt the age gap between them when the barista, a good ten years younger than ...him, started flirting with her.MoreLess
