"Don't Go Whoring Her Out !"

Before Debbi had a chance to retrieve her knickers and finally retreat to the dressing room to try on the gowns, which had been the original purpose of the visit, Lady Annabelle interrupted her. "You do have a full passport I assume Debbi darling ? Because there may be quite a lot of overseas travel involved with the job" she explained. "Er, yes. Yes I do. I have been to Korea and Japan on behalf of the company" Debbi confirmed. "South Korea I hope ?" Sir Jason laughed. "Um yes, South Korea" Debbi confirmed unnecessarily. She was still acutely aware that she was standing there bottomless and wearing only an unaccustomed push up bra.

"So, will Tuesday be OK for an interview Debbi ? It's only a formality but you did say you would feel happier that way ?" Jason continued. "Er, yes, I can make that" Debbi agreed. "You can forward all the details to me sir, here's my card" said Alan, eager not to be cut out of the process. "Oh, er, quite, fine" said Sir Jason. "How much notice will you have to give to your present employer ?" he wondered, turning back to Debbi. "A month" Debbi replied, She felt sure that Jeff would press her for a longer handover period but at this stage she didn't feel that she owed him anything beyond what her contract stipulated. "Perfect" Lady Annabelle cut in. "We're on our hols in St Vincent for most of that time anyway. We have a glorious place of our own out there. I'm sure you'll get to see it with us in due course" she continued.

"The matching set or your own knickers ?" Sensing a break in the conversation, Celia repeated her question. "Oh, er, my own knickers please" Debbi replied. She hastily stepped into the thong and scampered over to the dressing room, all eyes appreciating the view of her bum as she retreated.

Debbi attempted to regain her equilibrium. God, that was embarrassing ! The whole point of finally deciding to change her job had been to be able to keep her clothes on and now these prospective new employers had already seen her stark naked for an extended period. Oh well, they hadn't seemed phased by it. Did she really want this job ? It would be a complete change but nothing she couldn't handle, she felt sure. And she had a few days to think about it before this interview. It seemed it was a done deal if she wanted the job but she would think of all the relevant questions and get a much better idea of what the job actually entailed from the interview. It might open up a whole new world of possibilities. She hated her inherited sense of deference towards the ruling classes and hoped this might be a chance to make her more at ease in such company.

Debbi and Alan were making their way back to Alan's Porsche, laden down with bags containing two hideously expensive but wonderful gowns and a selection of designer lingerie. "Put those in the boot Deb. I know a superb restaurant a little further up the High Street. Italian in honour of your father's heritage !" Alan realised he was going to have to put in a bit more effort to have his way with Debbi now and anyway, he needed to make sure he got his financial recompense. OK, he hadn't done anything to obtain the job offer from Sir Jason but if they had not been in Celia's boutique this morning that would never have come about. And he had outlined Debbi's C.V. to the aristocratic couple when given the chance.

"Well, that was fun" Lady Annabelle chuckled as they made their way back to Sir Jason's Bentley, laden down with bags carrying a selection of gowns from Emma Stockwell's latest collection. Celia had had a successful morning ! "Serendipitous" Sir Jason agreed. "I hope you didn't mind me taking the lead but she does seem perfect and it saves us a lot of faffing around" Annabelle added. "No, not at all. She looks just right" said Jason. "Just as long as you don't go whoring her out to all your friends" warned Annabelle. "What ? Not even the Saudis ?" Jason objected. "Oh, no, I didn't mean them. Of course, that would be fine. They expect that sort of thing and it's business" Annabelle conceded. "And I might need a sweetener with Adebola for the Nigerian deal. He's being awkward" Jason pointed out. "Absolutely, that's perfectly acceptable too. No, I was thinking more about your layabout Old Harrovian chums" Annabelle clarified. Jason laughed. "Right, no freebies for them. If they want her, they'll have to come up with their own seduction plan. Talking of which, do you think that Alan Meadows fellow is getting into her knickers ?" he wondered. "I didn't get that vibe" thought Annabelle. "Though I'm sure he would love to" she laughed. "It's tedious but I suppose I'll have to pay him a commission" Jason conceded.
