Hi,
Great part.
Did Clark spy on them while the door close?
I hope so!
Perry frowned in concern. “Lois, if this is as big as you say, we need to bring in someone with more experience to run this.”
“What? No! This is my story! I dug all this information up, me! This is mine!”
“And it will stay yours! But if what you’ve told me is true, these people won’t hesitate to kill you dead as Caesar’s ghost if you put one little toe over the line! I won’t allow you to risk your life, young lady, no matter how good you think you are or how big the story might be!”
She locked eyes with him for a long moment, then sighed. “You’re right, Chief. I’m sorry. This is a big story. If you bring someone in, will you at least guarantee me co-author credit?”
Guarantee her co-author credit, its sound more, ‘be grateful I put your name’.
It was also a good thing for her that Perry didn’t see how flustered his guess about her feelings for Clark had made her. She walked back to her desk, ordering herself to get control of her emotions. She insisted to herself that Kent was already married, and besides he was a Kansas nobody, not anywhere good enough for her.
She wasn’t convinced.
She’s in love!
Lana’s is not going to be happy.
More ASAP, please.
