Summary
Alex is suddenly really glad he wore one of his nicer button downs and not the Hannah Montana tee shirt he was wearing four minutes before he had to leave the house to meet June and Nora at this wine bar.
The most gorgeous man Alex has ever seen just walked up to the table and introduced himself as Henry.
Alex was expecting someone named Henry to join them. He wasn’t expecting Henry to be this attractive. Or older. Or wearing a full suit on a Saturday night.
To be fair, Alex has only just met Pez, who June met and she and Nora hit it off with when June did a profile on Pez and the philanthropy work he does for HFMW, this huge luxury goods conglomerate. Alex has only just now put together that ‘Pez’s mate Henry’ is Mr. HFMW himself.

Henry gets a little loopy after getting injured at polo practice. He then has an interesting conversation with Alex.
***
Inspired by that video of a man coming out of surgery and saying he hit the jackpot when he married his wife. Super fucking cute.

Summary
"Hello, Mr. Fox-Mountchristen's office. How may I help you?"
"Hello, can I speak to Mr. Fox-Mount-krishen, please?"
Alex blinked. After two weeks of hearing nothing but the voices of snooty men and frazzled secretaries calling in, the person on the other line now sounded decidedly neither snooty nor male nor in any way adult.
It was a little girl.
"Mr. Fox-Mountchristen's unfortunately in a meeting right now,” Alex began slowly, “but I could take a message?"
"Oh." The girl paused. "You're not Mr. Hunter."
Alex starts a new job as Henry's new assistant. Henry's daughter keeps calling the office and leaving him messages.

Summary
“I’d like to pay for your schooling,” Henry says casually. “Move you into a better apartment. You’ll get an allowance, of course, but that will be for you to do with what you will. Your expenses will be covered outside of that.”
Alex blinks. He’s drunk off expensive wine and Henry’s attention. His brain isn’t functioning. “What?”
Henry’s expression hasn’t changed. “Do you need me to repeat myself?”

Bookmarker's Notes
Alex stands shakily. Runs a hand through his hair. “I don’t think I can do this. This isn’t… I need more. I want more.”
“Love,” Henry says softly, and when Alex looks at him, the fucker is smiling. “Don’t you know all you’ve ever had to do is ask?”

The importance of the 'recall email' feature by clottedcreamfudge

Summary
"What did that email even say?" Bea interrupts him again, and he glares at her.
"He was asking for an extension."
"Scandalous," she says drily, and he rolls his eyes, stealing the umbrella from her mocktail and wondering whether or not he could use it to end his misery.
"He... addressed me in a fairly comical way. It was quite rude, but apparently unintentional. We've all been there."
Pez nods solemnly. "I once called my tutor 'Carrie' when in fact her name was 'Carey'. Incredibly embarrassing. I couldn't look her in the eye for a week."
"Er, yes," Henry says haltingly. "Yes, just like that."
