They went to a swanky
bistro
where everything was high quality. The wood and velvet and leather that draped the well to do diners during their care free conversations. The
quality
of ingredients. The thick, textured paper of the menus. The wax of the burning candles.

By the time he walked into the menagerie of 10AM at the office, he was calm about everything. He knew he'd get out of this. He'd gotten himself into worse situations before. Plus now that he thought about it, his wife catching himΒ

The thought of returning home felt unwise. Although he spent all day dreaming up sales copy that could convince bozos into buying almost anything, Dempsey couldn't imagine a plausible explanation, a believable story as to why he had been gone all night.
It painted too perfect a picture: the cheating husband....

You've never seen Max Dempsey's beard
Compared to other men
downtown
late evening, Max Dempsey has an edge. While others sport the dark blue shade of a
five o clock shadow
, Dempsey's chin and jawline flaunts fresh.
