''You didn't put any effort back there.'' Chad said in a cold tone as soon as we entered my office. Could he give me a break?What else does he need from me?All the information he told me to give the police. I did. Neither anything was added nor removed.
'' My reaction to the questioning isn't relevant. Your story soundsconvincing as it is.'' I can't worry about on the list of potential suspects. I knew what happened to Harper and yet I stood before the investigator and spat lies after lies, having to play the concerned boss.
Chad scoffed. '' Not to the officer. Do I have to remind you that we can't afford an investigator on our tail? Not with the delicate project we're currently working on.
'' I do not care. '' That was my only honest sentence I said today.
'' You should! You created this mess. I helped you clean it up. The only think I asked ofyou is to keep it that way.'' Chad insisted. And that made my blood boil with annoyance.
'' Damn it Chad! Stop talking. Just leave. I don't want you here. I can't stand your voice and face.'' I couldn't contain my frustration, It crawled my skin.
I don't know how to spell that out for him. He should give me a breather. Just a day ago Claire broke up with me. The same night I found out myformer vice secretary was dead. No! killed and yes it was all my fault but I don't need anyone to point that out
He ignored my outburst and wentcloser to my full wall glass window. While observing the sky.'' It doesn't look like we will have a white Christmas this year.'' His nonchalant tone pissed me off.
'' What does that got to do with anything?'' If he doesn't want to leave me to cool off. Then he got some questioning to answer.
'' You knew about this Chad. Why didn't you tell me?'' I stood behind him. He finally turned around to face me. '' Mr. Dawson, you know exactly how this works. You were off the case. So... updating you wasn't necessary.''
''Do not put it that way! I was forced off the matter and you know that very well.''
Chad sighed, not bothering to match my high tone. ''And that was for a very obvious reason. You couldn't chain your penis away from work.''
My expression darkened as I felt more angry. ''Screw that! The whole situation was absurd. It had nothing to do with my relationship with Harper. So, why the hell did you vote to have her killed just for snooping around?'' I felt helpless. They were all convinced that I was letting my emotions take over my reasoning.
'' For god's sake! I agreed to walk away from the case but only if the decision would be reconsidered.'' They fooled me and left me in the dark.
'' And I assure you Mr. Dawson, that Harp...'' I felt my patience jump out of the window. I pushed everything laying on my work desk, including all the stacks of documents and my desk decorations Everything crashed on the floor. My personal laptop wasn't spared either.
