The Boss’s Wife Chapter Eleven: Old Ways Be Dammed.
Derek and Juliet are put into the corner by the board. Will they stand against them, or bend to their will?
Chapter Eleven: Old Ways Be Dammed.
After the meeting with Tim, I came out of his office, not his work home. I had never been so mad in my whole life. It seemed like the board was invoking some old rule. They wanted to take all of my clients, a practice that hadn’t been used in many years.
It seemed I had also signed a paper that would allow them to do just that. Tim had told me his father had put the rule into play in case someone fell ill or was incapable of performing their duties for their clients. Since then, the board had twisted the rule into something they could do on a whim if they all voted on it.
I immediately went into attack mode. I knew they would have to call Nigel and Samuel, then they would want me to sit down with them, so they could tell me what was going to happen and when.
Juliet had a plan of attack, and the two of us stayed up most of the night and early into the morning, putting all of our ducks in the basket. If they wanted a fight, we were going to give them one.
