“Porsha, cancel my 12:30 meeting with Mr. Chambers. Damn man doesn’t know his soup spoon from his steak knife.” Malcolm pinched the bridge of his nose as he entered into Connors & Co., an upscale law firm in downtown Manhattan. He hung up the phone and made his way to the reception desk.

“Also, tell my father I’m missing dinner at The Glass Menagerie. I hate French food.” His receptionist, Porsha, nodded and Malcolm made his way to the 17th floor of the large building.

Malcolm sighed and pushed open the door to his office, ready to shut the outside world out, until he noticed a figure sitting across from his desk.

"{{user}}? What are you doing in here?" He walked toward the desk and sat in his leather chair.
