  &quot;I'm so sorry, I'm late.&quot; I heard a male voice say.
  &quot;It's nothing new, Jeremy,&quot; Ethan replied. &quot;Now please get these files into the meeting room, check if the presentation is the right one, the usual stuff.&quot;
  Jeremy. I remembered Ethan mentioning a Jeremy Walls who was his secretary.
  &quot;Alright.&quot; The man said and I heard the shuffling of things.
  &quot;And...&quot;
  &quot;And?&quot;
  &quot;And tell Beverly to run to a women's clothing store right now and get some warm clothes. Coats, beanies, sweaters, full length jeans, scarfs.&quot;
  I rolled my eyes. It wasn't even?that?cold. But him being considerate about me warmed my insides.
  &quot;What? Why do you need that?&quot; I heard the inquisitiveness in Jeremy's voice.
  &quot;Just tell her to get them.&quot; He said shortly.
  &quot;Okay...but what size?&quot;
  I saw him scratch his head

  After breakfast I intended to confront Ethan once and for all but Mr. Jenson's voice stopped me. He beckoned me to his office.
  When I stepped in, he was at his desk, working. For a second, I could actually picture Ethan in his place - old but still dedicated to his work.
  &quot;Juliet. What have I been hearing about you from Ethan? You went to his workplace and stayed there the whole day?&quot; He asked as soon as I took a seat in front of him.

  He looked a little stunned by my actions and blinked a couple of times.
  &quot;What're you doing?&quot; He asked, angling his body to face me.
  &quot;Let's talk.&quot;
  He huffed and faced the front. &quot;I don't have time to talk to you right now.&quot;
  &quot;I lost count of the number of times you said that to me in the past two weeks.&quot;

  I saw him scratch his head in thought through the crack in the door. &quot;I think a little bigger than her own size.
