Chapter 15

• By the time I get the mail I'm tweaking the slides. I was so engrossed in preparing the slides it took 5 rings to pick up the phone.
• 'Raphael Sinclair's office. How may I help you?'
• It is one of his more high-maintenance clients, who couldn't—or didn't want to—grasp the fact that he was currently in a meeting. By the time I wrapped up the phone call, all but signing away my firstborn on the promise that yes, he would call her back as soon as possible, I'm more than exhausted. I'm definitely underpaid for this job. It will serve him right if I send her a call through.
