Chapter 415

What they did not realize was that this was exactly what was troubling Minnie.

She was more than ready to get close to Walter in every way possible.

They had been practically joined at the hip at work for a month then, so things should have heated up between them. However, David, the assistant, always stuck out like a sore thumb in the office, blocking her every move to get close to Walter.

After hours, Walter was all about keeping up appearances, not even offering to walk her home. How was she supposed to get him alone?
