Chapter 80 : Excuses for Peace

The real estate office was much quieter when I returned. I grabbed myself some lunch on my way and carried it into the office. Sometimes, I wished Rebecca had never gotten me hooked on that damn Pad Thai, but I couldn't resist how good it was.

I dug my chopsticks into the box, taking a large mouthful as I studied the statements Kenneth had sent his secretary to bring me. He wasn't lying when he said that they were doing surprisingly well, despite the current climate. I was impressed with the profits they were bringing me in. It would take me a while to track down all of the paperwork for each sale, ensuring that everything was above board, but we were off to a good start.

Marcus Bianchi made it hard to focus.

I tried to shove away any thoughts of him as I studied the paperwork. I needed to conduct some employee interviews, but I could hardly focus on eating my lunch right now. I didn't want these people to see me distracted.
