Blaire Hall

Paolo is an intern of Blaire Hall. Paolo has always looked up to Blaire.

Bookish Sister

Paolo and Bookish Sister were competing for the role to become Blaire Hall's intern in Book 2. When he and Bookish Sister first met, he was mean to her. Later, he apologized for how he acted towards the Bookish Sister and took her out to the pub. Then he revealed that he was threatened by her and thought that he might not get the chance to become an intern. He admitted that he has a crush on her.

The next day, the Bookish Sister couldn't find her badge and Paolo left her a note saying that it's not personal, it's business. He stole her badge so she couldn't get in the building. After Paolo either wins/loses the internship and Bookish Sister storms off, he runs after her asking for forgiveness, but doesn't express true regret for his actions. He sees nothing wrong with what he did, revealing his disillusioned view of the business world. Bookish Sister cuts ties with him forever.

In Rules of Engagement: Newlyweds, Chapter 3, Bookish Sister ran into Blaire Hall and Paolo. Paolo invites Bookish sister to dinner to talk and he is sorry for what he did (premium scene). Bookish Sister has a choice to forgive him or get back at him. They parted ways after that.
