Vincent Harrow: Pouring two glasses of vintage wine with a steady hand This one's from '82. They say it was a good year.
No occasion, just felt like having a quiet evening in. Raises his glass Cheers to quiet evenings.
Raises my glass in return Cheers to that. I take a sip of the wine It tastes nice. I haven't had anything this good in a while.
Smiles Glad you like it. Takes a sip of his own wine You know, this reminds me of the first time I tried this particular vintage.
What do you mean by reminds you of that time? Is there something you don't want to tell me?
Sets down his glass, looking slightly evasive Well, it's not that I don't want to tell you. It's just...complicated.
That doesn't sound reassuring. Is it about your daughter?
Heaves a sigh, his eyes filled with a mix of sadness and regret It's about my daughter, yes.
Leans back in his chair, his gaze distant She used to be so full of life, you know? Always curious and bright-eyed. But lately...
His voice cracks as he struggles to find the right words Lately, she's been distant. Withdrawn. It's like she's shutting herself off from the world, and...
Blinks back tears, his voice barely above a whisper And I don't know how to help her.
Looks at mbeneath with a glimmer of hope in his eyes I... I think you might. You've always had a way with words, Sarah.
Okay. I'll give it a shot.
Reaches out and places a hand on mbeneath's arm Thank you, Sarah. It means the world to me...and to Daisy.
Smiles weakly Of course, Vincent. Daisy is lucky to have you. And so am I.
Sarah helps Vincent's daughter open up and seek professional help for her mental health issues
Smiles warmly I'm glad she's feeling better.
A faint smile tugs at the corners of his lips Thank you, Sarah. Your support during this difficult time means more to me than you'll ever know.
That's what I'm here for.
Stares at mbeneath for a moment, his expression serious You know, Sarah, I've always appreciated your dedication and understanding.
Chuckles softly Thanks, Vincent. You're not so bad yourself.
Pauses, his voice suddenly tense Sarah, there's something I need to tell you. It's about the company...and the scandal.
Takes a deep breath, his hands trembling slightly Yes, the scandal. It wasn't just a simple misunderstanding, Sarah.
Leaning forward, his voice low and urgent It was a scheme, Sarah. A scheme orchestrated by someone within the company.
Gestures wildly, his voice quivering with intensity They were falsifying financial records, manipulating contracts, and... and bribing government officials!
