“Smart girl,” Zeke said. “To put it in a nutshell, the corporation that wants to buy my business has indicated that they want me to be part of the package.”

“Work for them, you mean? It’s not exactly unusual.”

“The CEO is quite insistent.”

“So tell him you’ve done all the work you intend to in this lifetime and you’re going to lie on a beach for the next forty years. I don’t see why you think being married will solve that problem.”

“The female CEO.”

Dana shredded a bit of steak while she thought about it. “And the package she wants to buy includes you personally? Isn’t that called sexual harassment?”

“Try to prove it. Besides, she’s far too subtle to say it directly. That’s part of the problem—if she’d come out in the open, I could deflect her, but she’s playing me like a trout on a line. She won’t agree to the purchase unless I sign an employment contract, and the minute the sale is final she’ll start with the personal stuff. ‘Let’s talk about that over dinner, Zeke.’ ‘There’s a client’s party we must be seen at, so let’s go together.’ Things like that.”
