Chapter 7 The next afternoon , Ethan finally strolled into the office . Huge dark circles under his eyes . He looked like a deflated balloon - completely drained . I smirked to myself . I didn't need to ask . He'd probably finished the kid's meal and then stayed up all night gaming with his little bunny . Absolutely pathetic . How did I ever fall for this loser ? The moment he walked in , he rushed over . " Madison , how did it go with the project ? What did Mr. Lewis say ? " I looked at him calmly . " The deal fell through . " " What ? " Shock flooded his face . " What happened ?

Madison , isn't Mr. Lewis close with your uncle ? How could you mess that up ? " What a joke . As if he didn't know the reason . I leaned back in my chair , speaking slowly . " Just because my uncle knows Mr. Lewis doesn't mean he's going to hand over fifty million for free . " " There are companies lined up from here to the Hudson River waiting to work with Silvergate . We're not exactly irreplaceable . " I added coldly , " And yesterday , Mr. Lewis was genuinely offended . " " He felt we didn't take him seriously at all . " At that , Ethan's confidence shriveled like a punctured balloon .

" Lila just doesn't have experience yet . She doesn't understand how these dinners work ... " That again . I nearly laughed . Since Lila joined the company , it had been one screw - up after another . Every disaster she caused , I was the one cleaning up . And yet she still thought she was the best thing since sliced bread . Try correcting her , and she'd throw a folder across your desk .

I'd warned Ethan countless times . He always said she needed time and room to grow . And then , just like that , he had a bright idea - moved her straight into the executive office as his assistant so he could " train her personally . " Which led to yesterday's world - class stunt with the kids ' menu . I reminded him , voice like ice . " Lila's been with us for a full year now . " " What can anyone learn in a year ? " Ethan snapped . " It's probably her team's fault for not training her properly ! " Training ? Don't make me laugh .

The head of Finance personally walked her through how to process receipts . She said he nagged too much - and fed a whole stack of important documents straight into the shredder . HR tried to walk her through company policy . She called the rules outdated , then showed up the next day in a crop top and a miniskirt , claiming she was " bringing energy " to the boring office . Her entire team was so fed up they filed a joint request to have her transferred out . Her entire team filed a joint complaint begging to have her transferred out .

There really was something wrong with his brain . " Didn't you make her your assistant so you could teach her yourself ? " Ethan choked on my words , coughed twice , then tried to save face . " Lila ... she just needs more time . " I couldn't be bothered to argue anymore . Instead , I tossed the problem back to him . " Fine . She needs time .

" " Then you tell me how are you going to explain this lost deal to the board and shareholders ? " - His frustration instantly shifted into dread . He started pacing around the office , muttering under his breath . " She's just a rookie . If she takes the fall for this , she'll get fired ... " " No, I promised her mom I'd take care of her ... " " But if I take the blame ... " He stopped and turned to me , looking utterly torn . " If I take the heat , I'll lose all authority . How am I supposed to keep those old guys in line after that ? "
