Meredith DuranMiss Masters was not content with threatening to hire away his staff, oh no. First, she had to perfume it.
About This Quote
In the tradition of all new mothers, Miss Masters doused her new nursery with a scent that would make a hippo jealous. A scent that was so overpowering that it could knock a man off his feet and make him question which way was up. She had the nursery painted and the room decorated and had even hired a nanny and a governess, despite the fact that she had no money and was not very good at either of those things. The entire time she was working on this project, Miss Masters thought nothing of the fact that the furniture was covered with dust sheets and had been for months.
She didn’t care about what her staff thought of her. She didn’t care if they were embarrassed to be working under her or what they thought of her for making such an expensive project so rushed and unprofessional.
