Summary
“If I’m gone by the end of tomorrow,” Nikolai says, “you can do whatever you like. I’ll write you a reference on solid gold.”
He didn’t really want to say it. But he’s doing what he has to. Zoya was never going to like it.
She says, “As if I wouldn’t follow you. Someone needs to talk you out of exactly this kind of nonsense.”
Of everything Nikolai could be afraid of, this is somehow the worst of it. He needs to get a grip. He takes a breath and says, “I wonder sometimes if it would be better. If you didn’t work for me.”
The day before you probably, most likely, almost definitely get forcibly removed from your job, or at least put on very strict notice, is just about the worst time to make moves on the coworker who’s been by your side this whole time. Which is why Nikolai Lantsov has no choice but to try it.
