Tangled Temptations

Chapter 72

Parker seemed pretty cheesed off, and he said, "Isn't this your place? Where the heck are you going at this ungodly hour?"

His tone became even more nonchalant, and he said, "I need to go back to check some documents."

Parker was at his wit's end with him. He waved his hand and said, "Just get lost! You're a professional lawyer, always busy solving problems for others. Man, you're swamped!"

Harvey's tone was tinged with sarcasm, and he said, "Horigan Inc. pays me 8 million a year to be their legal consultant. I thought you knew, Dad!"

Parker picked up a knick-knack and hurled it, shouting, "Get the hell out!"

Harvey beat a hasty retreat.
