. chapter tweny-four
it was friday , four weeks before chrismas . in the meeting room at paradox i watched the clock inch past five-thirty . barry was in full flow and was not going to stop . what he had to say was interesting but i wished he had said it earlier in the day .
chriss propped his head in one hand . during a pause , he looked up . he had spotted my sneaking for the clock ." are you in a hurry , minty ?"
"not at ll ," i replied coolily .
"we're coming to you in a minute , minty ." barry said .
in a feeble attempt to revcognize the season , syriol had draped a string of fairy lights over the picture on the wall . it was by shiftaka , and i had persuaded berry that it would be a good investment when he had decided to plogh aa portion of paradox's profits into an asset .( when i pointed out that his employees might be considered assets , barry grinned and said he needed fixed assets , )
