Two things occurred to Ross. The first was: if she was excited about this question, then hopefully she would do well when she had to act on her diplomacy as his secretary. The second was: if she hated Emerett Picardy, she was likely at least slightly progressive, and his immediate office could certainly use an additional dose of progressivism.
"This sounds like an — interesting experience," Ross said. "I haven't read Lupine Lawlessness, but regrettably I have run into Mr. Picardy before." He didn't have to deal with the man nearly as often as Morwenna did, but that didn't mean he enjoyed it when he did.
"And — this is likely to be one of my last questions — the individual who fills this role will have to uphold a strong standard of confidentiality. Do you have prior experience with this?"
