Katie raised her eyebrows. He definitely had a point, and he seemed more reasonable than most who protested the Center's work. “Remember today was my first day on the job. I don’t have any pull there.”
“It wouldn’t hurt to ask, would it?”
“I guess not. They’ll probably say no, but I’ll ask.”
“You’re a gem. Thank you.”
“It’s getting late,” she said, “and I do have to work in the morning.” She thanked him for the meal and conversation as he walked her to her car. The sky was dark gray-blue with a smattering of stars unclouded by the lights of the shrinking city around them.
“Let me give you my number.” He held his inccet near hers and transmitted his contact information to her, and she gave him hers as well. “It’ll be under M for McLoughlin.”
“As will mine — for Marsh.”
Mike’s eyes went wide. “Are you related to Henry Marsh?”
“He’s my dad.”
Mike gasped. “I had no idea I was in the presence of royalty. Forgive me, m’lady. You’ve bestowed upon me a great honor by blessing me with your loveliness for these two hours. I shall phone you soon.” He took her hand and placed a soft kiss on its back.
Katie pressed her lips into a smile. The words were romantic but something in his tone sounded less than sincere. “Good night, Mike. It was a pleasure meeting you.”
“The pleasure was mine.” He bowed and stood back while she got in her car. As she drove out of the parking lot, he waved.
A gust from the air conditioner sent a chill across her flesh.
