Gerald had leaned forward and rested his elbows on the desk when he’d finished his appraisal‚ and kept his gaze locked on the actress‚ keen to see if his statement‚ deliberately constructed to appeal to Katrina’s ego and self awareness‚ had any effect. His lips curled up slightly at the corners‚ in what could be taken either as a smile or an expression of curiosity‚ and he attempted to gauge as much from her expression as the words she spoke.
