I push through the glass doors and into the lobby, thankful to get out of the
bitter New York cold. I nod a greeting at the security guard on my way to the
elevators. The doors slide open with a ping when I reach the 24th floor, and I
step into the empty, darkened offices of Anderson and Smith’s Manhattan
offices.
As usual, I’m the first person to arrive in the Mergers and Acquisitions
Department, just the way I like it. I’ve always been a morning person, one of
those types who likes to catch the early worm before the birds make their first
chirp of the day. So far this morning, I’ve been to the gym and got my eight
miles under my belt for the day. Today was upper body weights. I like to
alternate, lower body one day, arms the next, and one day dedicated solely to
abs. That’s how I keep both my body and my brain sharp, ready for whatever
life has to throw at me.
And as an M&A lawyer, it’s usually got a whole lot.
Except today I’m not first, and the company’s cockiest employee sits in
his office, leaning back in his chair, his shoe-clad feet resting on the edge of
his pretentious solid mahogany desk, his cell phone to his ear as he barks
with laughter at something the person on the other end of the line is saying.
Wyatt Jefferson. He glances at me through the glass wall of his office and
raises his eyebrows as he lifts his wrist, as if to question my tardiness.
I ignore his unspoken jibe, mainly because it’s misdirected, but also
because I can’t stand the guy.
Two solid reasons in my book.
I make my way to my own office, where I hang my suit jacket over the
back of my chair and place my laptop in its dock. No sooner have I settled in
when Wyatt saunters in—without knocking—a self-satisfied smirk on his
face.
So far, so every single day.
