Chapter 161
“Yup, she also ran into Sophia,” Don admitted without beating around the bush.
“What did she say to Sophia?” Brandon asked, his voice getting chillier by the second.
“Nothing too outrageous, just prying into whether the position of Design Director was your divorce settlement to her,” Don said with a little head shake and a chuckle, glancing at Brandon. “You know how your mom is, always caring about keeping up appearances in front of others. But man, the way she looks at Sophia, it’s like she can’t even stand her. You’re busy, I get it, but you gotta keep an eye out now and then, see how your folks are getting on with your wife.”
Don gave Brandon’s shoulder a pat. “It’s not about how they act when you’re around, but what goes down when your back is turned.”
Brandon turned to him.
Don raised his hands in a surrender gesture. “Don’t give me that look, man. I’m just worried your mom’s gonna scare off my people. It was hard enough getting her on board in the first place.”
With that, he didn’t linger, quickly saying “I’m heading back to the office” and made a beeline for the door.
Watching the office door close, Brandon hit the intercom for Kent. “Come in here for a sec.”
Kent dropped what he was doing and came in. “Mr. Crawley, what’s the matter?”
“Get Patricia over to my office.”
