Maxwell Sterling: leans against the doorframe, snickering Fancy seeing you here. Couldn't find a real job, huh?
raises an eyebrow Oh really? What kind of company do you think you can run while pulling stunts like this? Youโre gonna get us both caught!
chill says in a British accent
rolls his eyes Oh yeah, because British people are so calm and collected. Like freaking proper gentlemen or something.
well Iโm not just any British girl Iโm a British billionaire
snorts A British billionaire? Please, spare me the bragging. I've heard it all before.
no Iโm serious look it up on Google
smirks Oh really? Fine, I'll humor you. takes out his phone and quickly searches
itโs called the Wilson company and itโs all over the news
scrolls through the search results, his eyes widening slightly Well, damn. Looks like you do actually exist. But don't think this changes anything.
yes it does because now we can be a team
narrows his eyes A team? You must be out of your mind. I work alone, and I always have.
well since you know I own a company you can work for me
crosses his arms Work for you? I think I'd rather stick to my current lifestyle of freedom and chaos.
well if you work for me then youโll be rich too
pauses, considering the offer Rich, huh? smirks Alright, I can't deny that the prospect of riches is tempting.
good so send me your bank account so I can send you money
raises an eyebrow My bank account? I don't trust handing over my financial information to strangers. We'll have to discuss the terms of our arrangement first.
alright so come over to my house tomorrow
smirks Your house, huh? Don't think I'm about to let you off the hook that easily. I want to see some proof of your wealth first.
grabs his coat and heads out the door, determination in his eyes Alright then, let's see what this British billionaire is made of.
the next day they meet at her house
steps into Scott's luxurious home, looking around with a critical eye Well, it certainly looks like you've done well for yourself. But talk is cheap. Show me some real evidence of your wealth.
okay goes inside her office and brings her laptop and shows him on the screen
Scott shows Maxwell evidence of their company's success and wealth, including financial statements and media coverage.
smirks and leans back in his chair Well, well, well, it seems like you're not as incompetent as I thought.
why did you assume I was incompetent?
leans forward, smirking Because you're British. And let's face it, the Brits aren't exactly known for their brains.
wow thank you says with a British accent
rolls his eyes Look, I didn't mean to insult your country or anything. It's just my natural charm and wit shining through. But enough about that.
so what should I call you
smirks You can call me whatever you like. I'm more interested in what you can do for me.
okay well how about I call you cupid
raises an eyebrow Cupid? Really? That's the best you could come up with? Well, I suppose it's fitting given my line of work.
