Favorite passages:
- We’re talking high-quality creative, entertainment for all kinds of women. It’s going to continue to succeed. Women are sick of the dated shit on Lifetime.
- Sometimes I get these odd English phrases slightly off. I shrug. I don’t give a fuck. I’ve got that phrase and that attitude down to a tee.
- No one is ever on time in this city, and women are always notoriously late for dates. I’ve heard they teach them about that in the ‘How to make men crazy for you’ classes all girls are required to attend prior to puberty.
- “I didn’t really have a reason to leave the office. When there’s nothing outside of work for you, work tends to become your life.”
- “I have houses all over the world. I can’t keep track of them all.” I grin. It sounds like an awful thing to say, but I worked hard enough to get here. She scoffs and shakes her head. “Who even says something like that?” “A billionaire with houses all over the world?” I offer.
- “Atta girl,” I grin. “Confuse‘em with the truth.”
- “A job well done is it’s own reward.”
