Chapter Eight
The next day Karen arrived at Grace Adler Designs at one o'clock a little nervous. She was afraid to tell Grace that she didn't get her the job back. She walked in and surprisingly received a hug from Grace. "Thank you Karen!" she exclaimed. "What honey? What's going on?" Karen asked extremely confused. "Don't act like you don't know. Carter called me this morning and told me everything. Thank you so much," Grace said, happiness oozing out of her mouth. "She gave you the job back?" Karen asked as Grace giggled. "Oh stop it. You knew I got it back," she answered as Karen nodded. "Right honey," she said, sitting down in her chair. She was so confused. Why had Carter lied to her?

Will sat at his desk typing when there was a knock at the door. "Come in," he said, still staring at the screen. The door opened and in walked a man with black hair dressed in an expensive black suit. Will looked up and his heart instantly jumped. The man looked like a god. "Hi," he managed to utter out. "Hi, are you Will Truman?" the man asked as Will nodded. "Great. My name is Todd Blumenthal. I'm here to offer you a proposition," he said, as he took a piece of paper out of his suit jacket pocket.
Meanwhile, Jack blew out a satisfied breath as he turned over in bed and saw the delivery man. He had learned the man's name was Ryan and well, the rest was obvious. "Hey," Jack whispered when Ryan opened his eyes. "Hey," he replied groggily. "What did you think of last night?" Jack asked. "It was fantastic," Ryan answered, as the phone started ringing. Jack sighed and grabbed it. Jack: Hello? Karen: Hey Poodle Jack: Hey Kare, what's up? Karen: Nothing, I have to talk to you about some stuff Jack: Can it wait? I'm kind of busy with... Karen: Ah, alright well call me when you are free Jack: Okay, bye Kare
He hung up the phone and smiled. He always cheered up when he heard her voice. "Who's Kare?" Ryan suddenly asked, as Jack turned over and looked at the handsome man. "Karen. She's my best friend. You saw her the other day. Thanks to her, you are here right now," he answered. "Really, how so?" Ryan asked curiously. "Well, she bought all those clothes for me and you delivered them. If she wouldn't have bought them, you would have never been at my door," Jack explained. "Oh, now I see," Ryan said, as they both smiled at each other.
Three hours later, Jack ran into Grace Adler designs and posed in the middle of the office. "Ladies and gentleman, Jack McFarland!" he exclaimed, as Karen clapped and Grace rolled her eyes. "Thank God I'm about to leave," she said as he gave her a mean look. "Don't be jealous just because I have a nice ass," he said as Karen giggled. "Let's rephrase that. Don't be jealous because I actually have an ass. From what I can see, nothing is sticking out. Her ass is just as flat as her breasts," she said as Grace shook her head. "I don't know why I put up with you two," she said, grabbing her briefcase and two big rolls of fabric. "Aw honey. You know we kind of love you," Karen said, as she and Jack smiled wide. "Right," Grace replied walking into the small wooden elevator. "See you guys later!" she exclaimed, as the elevator traveled downward. Once she was gone, Karen turned to Jack with a serious look on her face. "Stan decided to stay another week and he didn't even tell me. I had to ask Rosario where he was because when I got home, he wasn't there," she said angrily. "Why is he staying another week?" Jack asked, pulling up a chair. "I don't know Jackie, but I have a bad feeling," she answered. "Like what? You think he's cheating?" he asked as she sighed. "I don't know," she answered honestly as he leaned in close to her. "I doubt he is. He'd be stupid to do that anyway," Jack said as he gave her a peck on the cheek. "Thanks poodle. Wanna go shopping?" she asked, her mood instantly changing to happiness. "Yes and speaking of shopping, I've got a new boyfriend!" he exclaimed, as they both jumped up and down clapping. "Tell me all the details. Especially the dirty ones," she said devilishly as he grabbed her coat for her. "I've got a lot of those to tell," he replied, wrapping the coat around her shoulders.

Stan grinned as he watched the blonde-haired woman glide around the suite in her skimpy clothing. "I'm so glad I decided to stay here," he said as the woman squealed. "Me too. I love being out here with you. You treat me like a queen," she replied as she gave him a long kiss. "Are you sure your wife doesn't suspect anything?" she asked when they broke apart. "Not a thing," he answered reassuringly as he lightly chuckled to himself.
