Aubrey was Jack Mulligan's daughter, the senior partner in charge of our divisionmy boss. She was a nineteen-year-old college student who had elected to intern at our firm for the summer, and out of the other eight associates working under Jack, somehow, she got stuck with me. Jack said it was because he trusted me, because he knew I was a straight-shooter and I'd make sure she didn't fuck-off too much. The only thing I thought at the time was . . . great, just somebody else to babysit! But what the hell can you do? When your boss tells you to keep an eye on his daughter, you have to do it. So, I did what any normal person would do with an intern who happens to be his boss's daughter . . . I stuck her with my secretary.
