Bryce extends his hand to reach his wife's hand that is anxiously tapping on the table. He covers it with his and squeezes it. She peers up at him expectantly. "I'm sorry for giving you a hard time by taking too long to understand. We are definitely not getting any younger but instead our bodies are aging and weakening with each day that passes by," he chuckles, his eyes glimmering with understanding.
"So I can go ahead and arrange the interviews?" She eagerly blurts.
"Interviews? Don't you mean posting the job ad?" He blinks with confusion.
She fails to respond because she is well aware that he is not going to be pleased to hear that she had already posted the ad and shortlisted candidates to interview before first talking to her husband about it.
He observes the anxious look on his wife's face and her eyes that are restlessly darting around the room. It dawns on him that she made no mistake when she spoke about conducting interviews instead of posting a job ad.
"Wait a minute...you posted the ad before speaking to me...didn't you?" He arches his brows and narrows his eyes.
She clenches her teeth and screws her eyes shut in anticipation of Bryce's unpleasant reaction.
