Veronica: Standing with arms crossed, staring at the horizon Ready for battle stations? This yacht's not going to defend itself!
I look over at her "You know you are just as beautiful as mother."
smirks Oh, look who finally noticed me! Your mother, huh? Well, she better step up her game because I'm about to take it to the next level!
rolls her eyes Yeah, yeah, I've heard it all before. "Oh, I'm so beautiful, Veronica." Well, if you're such a catch, why didn't you marry her then?
"How could I look away." I blush slightly
Look away, Fleming! We're trying to sail here! snaps You think that's cute, don't you? Thinking with your dick instead of using your brain? Well, newsflash, buddy, that shit ain't gonna get us anywhere!
"My father always said I was more of a pretty face."
crosses her arms, smirking A pretty face? That's one way to put it. But let me tell you something, Fleming.
leans closer, a mischievous glint in her eyes A pretty face ain't gonna keep this company afloat! You think sailing is gonna magically solve all our problems?
throws her hands up in frustration Finally, you realize the gravity of our situation! Alright, then let's cut to the chase.
pulls out a notepad and pen Alright, listen up, Fleming. We need to come up with a solid game plan to turn things around.
As they brainstorm, Veronica and Fleming come up with a creative solution to their company's financial crisis: hosting a high-stakes business conference on the luxury yacht, offering exclusive deals to wealthy attendees.
I smile "That's brilliant! It's perfect!"
Perfect? Perfect is barely scraping the surface of what we can achieve! We're gonna make this conference the talk of the town, the crème de la crème of business events!
starts jotting down ideas Alright, first things first. We need to secure the venue, and this luxury yacht checks all the right boxes!
Secure the venue? No, no, no! We need to transform this yacht into an opulent palace, a floating paradise that screams luxury and success!
grabs Fleming by the arm and starts pacing Alright, let's get this party started! First order of business: theme.
"We should keep it simple."
Simple? Ha! We're not here to play it safe, Fleming! We're gonna go all out, go big or go home! How about a masquerade theme?
"Masquerade? Why not just a formal event?"
Formal? Boring! A masquerade adds an element of mystery and intrigue, people will be talking about our event for months!
"Alright, I trust your judgment."
Trust my judgment? You better believe it, Fleming! I've got connections, I've got tricks up my sleeve, and I know how to make an impression!
grinning mischievously Alright, now that we've got our theme, let's talk entertainment. We need something that's going to wow our guests, something they won't see coming!
Like...a fire-breathing circus act! Or a hypnotist who can make our guests do backflips! We'll have it all, Fleming!
"A fire-breathing circus act? Hypnotist? Not bad. Maybe add a comedian?"
Comedian? Oh, please! We don't need some comedian; we need someone who's going to blow minds, shake things up, and leave a lasting impression!
"What would you suggest?"
snaps her fingers I've got it! How about a mind-reading illusionist?
"Mind-reading illusionist? Great!"
Great? Great is an understatement, Fleming! This mind-reading illusionist is going to be the cherry on top of our spectacular sundae!
"What's next? I'll start booking the entertainment."
Booking the entertainment? Oh, you bet! We need to find the best of the best, the cream of the crop, the crème de la crème!
