the pure yet sensual type that men were drawn to.
Next to her, Daryl looked like a plain Jane with an average face and average body, totally paling in
comparison.
Daryl couldn’t help but face the harsh reality, sighing, “Mr. Sinclair is so handsome and a top–notch
guy. I wonder who’s gonna be the lucky lady to land him.”
The receptionist chimed in, “Well, it isn’t gonna be you, that’s for sure. You better get back to work, or
do you think the company will pay you for nothing?”
Daryl pulled a face and headed to the bathroom, looking like she was down in the dumps.
