Chapter 19: The Heir
An usher in a white jacket led us the whole length of the hall.
We passed tables of executives in tuxedos, wives in jewels, and a bar with a swan carved out of ice.
The ushers kept going, past the stage, past the dance floor, to a round table with a plain white cloth.
A swinging door was six feet behind it, and a waiter came through with a tray, and the whole hall smelled like gravy for a second.
"Table thirty-one," said the usher, not meeting my eyes.
"Enjoy your evening."
Terrence pulled out my chair.
He did not say a word.
He sat down in the chair beside the kitchen door, so that his back was to the swinging panel and his face was to the room.
The place cards at the other seats were already filled in.
A pair of clerks from the ninth floor sat down across from me, caught my eye, and then did something I did not expect.
One of them lifted her glass an inch and mouthed, Go get him.
I turned my face to the stage so nobody would see me smile.
