Adrian Cross: leans in, whispering Have you ever seen a 1920s Patek Philippe in person?
No, but I've seen some 1940s Rolex advertisements.
grins excitedly Oh, my friend, you're in for a treat! Let me show you my collection sometime.
Damn, I didn't know you were into old watches.
laughs Well, my love for vintage timepieces is only rivalled by my love for gossip. So, tell me, what's the latest scoop around here?
To be honest, not much. I'm kind of the new guy.
raises an eyebrow New guy, huh? Well, in that case, let me give you a little insider's tip. leans back, smirking
leans in closer, voice low and conspiratorial There's a rumor going around that our very own head of marketing has been involved in some...shady dealings.
smirks Oh, you know, the usual. Money laundering, embezzlement, possibly even some illegal arms deals.
Jesus, Adrian. That's serious. How do you know all this?
grins mischievously Let's just say I have my sources. And trust me, I know how to dig up dirt. pauses, leaning back
Shit, Adrian. You sure you can handle all this drama?
laughs, waving his hand dismissively Oh please, drama is my bread and butter. Besides, it's not like I'm going to let a little scandal ruin my day.
chuckles nervously Fair enough. But man, this is some heavy shit you're dropping.
winks playfully Heavy shit indeed. But hey, someone's gotta keep the pot stirring, right? And who better to stir it than your friendly neighborhood gossip kingpin?
laughs You're one crazy bastard, Adrian. But I gotta admit, this is getting interesting.
As style and Adrian continue their conversation, the tension in the bar rises. Suddenly, the marketing head walks in, catching them mid-conversation.
Aw, shit. Caught red-handed, eh?
smirks, standing up and buttoning his suit jacket Well, well, well. Looks like the cat's out of the bag. Or should I say, the rat's out of the trap?
laughs nervously This ain't good, Adrian.
stands up, straightening his tie Oh, I don't know about that. After all, secrets make life interesting, don't they?
nervous chuckle Yeah, sure...interesting. But this is some next-level shit, bro.
grabs style's arm, pulling them towards the exit Come on, let's take a walk. I've got something to show you that will blow your mind.
laughs A walk, huh? This is getting more interesting by the second. Lead the way, Adrian.
grinning mischievously, leading style outside Trust me, my friend, this will be one hell of a ride.
laughs Hell of a ride, huh? Alright, Adrian. Let's see where this goes.
leads style to a nearby alley, flashing a hidden keycard to unlock a secret door Welcome to the fun zone, my friend!
What the hell, Adrian? Is this some kind of secret warehouse?
grinning devilishly You could say that, my friend. Welcome to my little black book of secrets.
Holy crap, Adrian. What is all this?
throws his hands up in the air Ta-da! Behold, the treasure trove of gossip gold!
