Chapter 75: Brett

The knock startled me. I almost never closed my office door, and if I did, no one ever knocked, they just opened it and barged in. I was having a hard time focusing on the mounds of reports on my desk with the noise in the DC and had hoped to eliminate some of the racket.

"Come in," I called out.

Dan opened the door and peeked his head around.

"Why are you knocking?"

"You never close the door, so I didn't know if maybe you had a private guest you might be entertaining." He wagged his brows at me like an idiot.

"The only private anything I'd have would be Annie, and that doesn't happen here."

"Well, maybe not now. But it did."

I threw my pen at the asshole. He was screwing with me and thought he was funny.

"Speaking of your better half, have you guys considered Lissa's offer?" The joking stopped instantly, and his face took on a serious expression. Dan swung the heavy metal door open far enough to allow his giant frame to pass through before shutting it behind him.
