Chapter 19

• “Patrick, it is all your fault that I didn’t get to meet with that driver guy today, what’s his name?”
• Lance asked as he took off his clothes one after the other. He had a long day today and only had a fifteen-minute break. He just got out of the meeting and it was past nine pm. The most exhausting meeting he ever had. Those men were hard to get through to, if he ever had thought of persuading and making them see the reason why cutting their earnings, for now, would help a lot would be easy, it flew out of the window less than thirty minutes into the meeting, they didn’t want to listen to him. He hated how there wasn’t any woman among them, it would have been easier to persuade them if they were women because women have softer hearts and are considerate. Maybe it was time to replace all those bastards with intelligent and compassionate women who would put the needs of others in mind like his stepmother had done when she raised him as her son even though her husband cheated on her to birth him.
• “His name is Elio, my king and you can meet with him tomorrow,”
