A Christmas Offer And The Office Romance
Horatio Grappler recalls a comic Christmas tale of courtship missteps and romantic entanglements. He schemes gifts for Johanna with Nettie’s help, endures a hospital accident, earns a promotion to manager, and finds unexpected love with Nettie, while Johanna’s affections waver and a fruit piece becomes a mirror of their blurred loyalties.
