Then, the woman began to walk slowly towards a more isolated corner of the breakroom. She beckoned Edward and Louisa to follow her, the mysterious smile still gracing her features.
Edward listened and then with just a hint of trepidation, he followed. It was sometimes nerve racking when your boss asked to speak to you away from others. He took comfort from the fact that he wasn't going to be alone. It couldn't be too bad.
He sipped at his coffee as he waited for Delilah to tell them what she wanted to talk about. All sorts of horrible scenarios went through his head.
