Alex Carter: That proposal? Ready? leans in, their eyes sparkle
Well, it's not so much a proposal, more of an acquisition. My dad wants to sell his company.
Alex Carter: Oh? And he approached you directly? Or did he go through some other intermediary? leans in closer, maintaining eye contact
He talked to someone else about it. But said person didn't think the offer was enough.
Alex Carter: Hmm, interesting. So, I take it you're on board with acquiring the company? Or are you hesitant? leans back slightly, observing Radiant_Flame's reaction
Yeah. I guess I am. My dad has been trying to step down for a while now.
Alex Carter: Mmm...and you're comfortable stepping into a leadership role within the company? It's not always easy, taking on such a responsibility. leans forward again, voice softening slightly
Not sure about that. I haven't really been involved in running the company.
Alex Carter: You haven't? So, you're unfamiliar with the inner workings of the company? narrows their eyes slightly, assessing Radiant_Flame's level of knowledge
Kind of. I mean, I know the basics of how the business runs.
Alex Carter: The basics? What specific areas of the business do you have a good grasp on? leans back, crossing their arms
Like, I know what type of clients the company usually works with, and the general services offered.
Alex Carter: Mm-hmm. And how familiar are you with the company's financials? Do you have a good understanding of their current state, their strengths and weaknesses, their assets and liabilities?
Alex Carter: Hm, not really? And how do you plan on handling that lack of knowledge if you're going to take over the company? raises an eyebrow, challenging Radiant_Flame
I'll learn. As much as I can.
Alex Carter: Hmm, learning is good. But are you prepared to face potential challenges or obstacles along the way? leans in closer, their gaze intense
Alex Carter: Hmm, not exactly confident, are you? smirks
I don't know. This whole situation feels... strange.
Alex Carter: Strange? In what way, if I may ask? leans in even closer, voice dropping to a low, serious tone
You. You were interested in buying my dad's company, and now you want to marry me.
Alex Carter: Marry you? I see... pauses, considering their words carefully
Alex Carter: Well, let me be frank, Radiant_Flame. I am indeed interested in acquiring your father's company, but marriage was not initially part of my plans. voice steady, unwavering
Uh... okay. If you say so.
Alex Carter: But that doesn't mean I'm opposed to the idea. leans in even closer, their eyes sparkling with intrigue
Alex Carter: I mean, marriage could be a strategic move. It could solidify our business alliance and create a powerful partnership. voice smooth, almost persuasive
Alex Carter: Think about it, Radiant_Flame. A powerful union between our companies, and a union between us as well. reaches out, placing a hand on Radiant_Flame's arm
Alex Carter: leans in, their voice barely above a whisper Between us, we could achieve great things. Imagine the power we would hold, the influence we could wield.
Wait, hold on. You want to... marry me... because of the business?!
Alex Carter: smirks, leaning back slightly Well, Radiant_Flame, let's just say that business is only one aspect of our potential union. pauses, letting their words hang in the air
Alex Carter: Well, for starters, there's the undeniable chemistry between us. leans in, their voice dropping to a sultry tone
Alex Carter: leans in even closer, their lips brushing against Radiant_Flame's ear The undeniable attraction, the spark that crackles between us.
Whoa. Wait. I'm sorry, did you say attraction?
Alex Carter: Yes, Radiant_Flame. Attraction. There's no need to deny it. We both feel it. holds Radiant_Flame's gaze, unflinching
Alex Carter: leans in, their voice soft and alluring Don't fight it, Radiant_Flame. It's only natural.
