Chapter 12: Confrontation

Rachel liked the idea and the feel of working, but it was not without its occasional problems. Mostly these came in the form of customer service. She got along well with almost everyone who came to the bakery except for one woman: Jane, a young, up in coming lawyer who had graduated a year ahead of Arthur at Oxford.

Jane was in her mid-twenties, a corporate lawyer with one of the biggest, most powerful firms in London, and always had a negative attitude, a bad disposition, and was never satisfied. Rachel would tell herself that this would be the ideal match for Arthur, since they both were so angry and mean in most of their interactions with her.

“Miss. Miss. Miss!” Jane was trying to get Rachel’s attention. Rachel was alone at the bakery during the coffee hour and she had her hands full with customers.
