world famous chefs until she decided to join uncle Stu. Now she needed to prove to herself, uncle Stu and everyone else that this job wasn’t handed to her. She worked hard for it. And as they say, ‘the proof is in the pudding’, so hopefully today was one of those steps in proving her right.
    “Hi Sam. Just came from Dr. Simmons.”
    “I know, I know. I’ll make an appointment with him soon. Tomorrow,” he said coming to her. “I promise,” he added at her raised eyebrow.
    “Make sure you do.”
    “Congrats kid. Stu told me the luncheon was a success.”
    “Thanks ,” Moira smiled and hugged him. “It was. Now I have to think of ways to surpass it. Good thing is that I am just starting, so I have a whole lot of recipes to go through. By the time I am done with them I will be so famous you will need to quit your job and be my full time bodyguard.”
    “Last I heard, you were offered a full time position with that famous French pastry chef, which you declined.”
    “I know. Fame has never been my dream, I just love making great breakfast pastries and dinner desserts,” she sighed as she replied.
    They talked some more before Sam had to go to work. As he walked out of the apartment, Moira locked the door and continued to her bedroom. She took a shower then sat in front of the flat screen television flipping through the channels trying to find something to watch. Nothing seemed to hold her attention. Her mind kept going back to Conrad King. She was still stumped at Janet’s call earlier. Hoping she wasn’t going to get into trouble about providing his dad with treats, she dozed before a call from her best friend – Serenity woke her up.
     

Chapter Three
    Conrad had seen a fair share of beautiful women in his thirty years, but never anyone as beautiful as the little pastry chef. He hadn’t paid much attention to his dad over the last couple of weeks about her, but now he wished he had listened and paid attention. If he didn’t know his dad better, he would think he was about to propose to the little pastry chef. She had avoided looking at anyone when they had been served with the desserts, but on their second trip to the boardroom, she hadn’t been able to avoid eye contact as everyone had congratulated her. With the sweet tooth he had inherited from his dad, he had enjoyed the double layered chocolate cake he had opted for. Since his dad now had a standing order that she delivered to Janet twice a week, he was thinking it wasn’t such a bad idea if he had such an order too. But he needed way much more than what she concocted in the kitchen.
    Apparently she had been at the doctor’s office when Janet called her. He wasn’t happy about that. She hadn’t even offered to come back to the office. He was used to people changing their plans to suit his needs. Well, hopefully tomorrow he would get his chance. But it didn’t help that the rest of the afternoon was shot. Since the meeting had been concluded he had tried to catch up and concentrate on work but a pair of green eyes kept interrupting him. After Janet had told him she wasn’t available he had given up and gone to meet his friend – Lucas Conrinthos.
    “So what’s eating you up?” Lucas asked him.
    “What do you mean?” he asked.
    “Just that you have hardly heard a word I have said and you haven’t given any notice to the several women who have strutted by here.”
    “Sorry.” Conrad sighed. “Jet leg.”
    “ Conrad? Are you seriously going to bull shit a bull shitter?”
    “Fuck you!”
    “Well that’s more like it. So you want to tell uncle Lucas what’s going on?”
    Conrad laughed. “Well uncle, I don’t know yet. But once I do, you will be the first to know.”
    His friend gave him a longer than usual stare before he replied, “Well fair enough. So you want another be er?”
    “I’m driving, so I better not. And I better get going. I have work to catch up on before the weekend if we are still on.” Nice save Conrad
