“Yes, of course.” Jill shot a disapproving glance at the other employees, who were still gawking. “Are we all so efficient that we’ve no more work to do?”
At once everyone redirected their attention to their jobs.
Jill looked at Miranda. “I’ve already taken the liberty of cleaning out your desk. It’s all in a box downstairs.”
Miranda was so grateful for Jill’s simple civility she scarcely registered annoyance that her desk had been cold-bloodedly emptied of her belongings. She said, “I’ve also a few things in my locker.”
“They should still be there. No one’s touched it.” There was a silence. “Well,” said Jill, a prelude to escape from a socially awkward situation. “I wish you luck. Whatever happens.” She started back toward her office.
“Jill?” called Miranda.
“Yes?”
“I was wondering about that article on Tony Graffam. Why it didn’t run.”
Jill looked at her with frank puzzlement. “Why does it matter?”
“It just does.”
Jill shrugged. “It was Richard’s decision. He pulled the story.”
“Richard’s? But he was working on it for months.”
“I can’t tell you his reasons. I don’t know them. He just pulled it. And anyway, I don’t think he ever wrote the story.”
“But he told me it was nearly finished.”
“I’ve checked his files.” Jill turned and walked toward her office. “I doubt he ever got beyond the research stage. You know how he was, Miranda. The master of overstatement.”
