Boardroom Bride - Page 392

I wanted to fuck her, to ravage her body as hard as humanly possible… But I held off. If that happens - when that happens - I want it to be special. I don’t want it to happen in the heat of the moment.

I want it to be… real.

Maya

The guy from legal is droning on and on and on, and I feel like I’m about to lose my mind. There’s a reason I’m no legal expert. I produce entertainment. I don’t give a fuck about the laws behind it.

Except that right now I kind of do. At least as far as they pertain to what I have in mind.

“Here you go, Maya,” he says, handing me a stack of papers that look like a contract and pointing out a section he’s highlighted. I scan it quickly, but it doesn’t make much sense.

“Translation?”

He nods. “Basically, it details out how the women and men are eliminated from the show and how the finale works. But there’s no clause about her choosing only one man in the end.”

He gives me a funny look, but I’m too relieved and excited to bother explaining.

“Thank you so much, Steve. You have no idea how happy this makes me. I owe you one.” I smile at him, and he grins back, his eyes wide behind his bottlecap glasses.

“Can I collect tonight?”

I nearly choke on my gum. “Excuse me?”

He laughs nervously, pushing his glasses up his nose and fiddling with the pens in his front pocket. “I just thought if you really wanted to show me your appreciation then maybe you’d go to dinner with me tonight.”

His face turns bright red as he says it, and I have to fight to keep the polite smile on my face and not roll my eyes. What is the deal with these guys? First, the camera guy wanted me to go out with him after the whole microphone and camera scheme when Tristan told me he cares about Megan. Now, Steve is asking me out too?

If these men I work with don’t cut this out, I don’t know what I’ll do. Other than stop asking for favors. I chuckle internally. Fat chance. This show is going to be my big break if I can pull off what I have in mind. And I’ll take any favors I can get along the way.

“Thanks, Steve,” I say, a bit too upbeat, “but I’m so swamped with the show right now. I just don’t have time.”

He looks disappointed, so I give him another smile. “Thank you again for helping me figure this out. You’re a really great guy.”

It doesn’t pep him up much, and he slinks out of my office, mumbling a you’re welcome or something under his breath.

I don’t have time to worry about Steve. I have a show to save, hopefully sparing a few hearts in the process.

Rising from my desk, papers firmly in hand, I stride down the hall, past Everett’s office, and on to the very end. The network president’s office. His secretary is sitting out front at her desk.

“I need to see the president,” I say, injecting my voice with confidence and importance with a hint of urgency.

The woman nods. “He’s in hi

s office right now.” She holds up a finger as she picks up the phone and presses a button. After a moment, she speaks into the receiver and the next thing I know, she’s telling me to head on back.

I make my way around the desk and stop in front of the frosted glass door. Hesitating for only a moment, I raise my fist and rap three quick times on the glass.

“Come in,” he calls out.

I open the door and walk in, shoving my nerves down. “Sir, I need to talk to you.”

“What can I do for you, Maya.”

I smile, moving to shut the door behind me. “I have an idea that will make this the highest rated finale this network has ever seen.”

Megan

I turn off the waterfall shower and grab a towel to dry off, my mind still reeling from the fact that Madden really and truly cares about me. I’m so happy about everything that just happened, even if it does make my decision even harder.
