Chapter Eight

Tally had mixed feelings, unsure yet somewhat certain. “It didn’t start off as a deliberate choice. After leaving home, I completed a few courses and then registered with some temp agencies. I enjoyed the flexibility of working different jobs here and there. Surprisingly, I even ended up temping in your building a few times. I never really considered the parallels between your business and that of my father’s.” Tally had a few reasons why she was in a corporate job. One she was good at it, also she enjoyed the challenges and another she voiced out aloud. “I just wanted to prove the men in my family wrong.”

Ryan put his elbow on the table and rested his chin in his hand before asking her. “Wrong in what way?”

Tally realized that Ryan and she had never really talked before on any level unless related to business. A lot of that was to do with her walls as well as his.

Knowing her father likes to chase his secretaries around the office desk, as it were. She hadn’t wanted that for herself.
