Archer furrowed his brows, unaware of where this was going."I have no idea what you are talking about," he said."Of course you don't. Nothing is hidden under the sun. Who knew you would be exposed like this?" the manager said."I am going to humor you by pretending I know what you are talking about.""You don't have to pretend.

Philip reluctantly lifted the phone on his desk and made a call for his executives to come to the office.He looked at Archer after the call, the latter waiting for him to speak."I am going to ignore the way you spoke to me."Archer scoffed, "That's all you are worried about?

He felt accomplished when he was given the days off but now he was regretting it."Hey, Gabriel," Archer called, "Is there anything else going on today?""If you are that bored, go to the gym," he teased Archer."I should have gone to work.
