Lexi
Beads of sweat were pooling at the small of my back, my hands were
clammy, and I’d already fumbled my coffee mug three times. If I kept this
up, my sleazy boss was going to figure out I’d seen something in seconds.
That would be bad, like majorly bad because I was sitting on a bomb that
could land him in some really hot water.
Considering the UAR didn’t do prison, bringing this evidence to the police
would see him executed. The PR was that prisons were inhumane and
offenders did not deserve a second chance. I didn’t even know if I wanted
that on my conscience, reporting his crime was like killing him, I didn’t
want that. But sitting on that info was as bad as turning him in, even if it
was just white-collar crime…
Wiping my palms along my pencil skirt, I tried to focus on the planner open
on my viewscreen. Appointments, that’s what I should be focused on. Mr.
Alberade had asked me to clear his schedule for tomorrow. Shirk on that
task and he would really know something was wrong; I had never failed
him before.
The man was a glorified accountant, a financial adviser, but that didn’t
mean he didn’t think the world of himself and demanded the highest quality
of his employees. In my two years at his firm, I’d seen dozens of people get
fired after they incited his legendary temper. I’d avoided it so far, but if
there was one thing that would set him off… this was definitely it.
I wished I had never miss-clicked on my computer and accessed server files
that were none of my business. I wished my moral compass hadn’t
impulsively led me to make copies of said files, proving that Mr. Alberade
had embezzled millions of credits from this particular client. Now I had to
go to the police, but the police were hardly my friend. What if Alberade
leaned on them just right and I went down for his crime, instead? No, better
I just throw these papers in the damn shredder and be done with it.
Right as that thought was finalized in my head the door to my boss’ office
swung open and he stalked out with a huge frown on his face. At over six
feet tall, my boss was not a small man, but as he’d hit middle age, he’d
gone soft and fleshy around his middle. He was still formidable, a former
boxer who’d discovered he had an aptitude for numbers more than he had
for cracking heads. At only five-two myself, I always felt tiny and just a tad
scared in his presence.
“What did you do, Lexi?” he hollered, his cheeks already growing red, a
sign his temper was riding him hard. I cowered in my seat but then quickly
leaped up and straightened my shoulders, Mr. Alberade hated any sign of
weakness, but he respected a hint of defiance if you toed that line very
carefully. There were no ass-kissers in his office, and that had made being
his assistant a better work environment than my last job.
