Ava: "The early bird gets the worm, and I just unearthed a whole nest of them."
Ava: stands up, looking down at Perry with a condescending smile Excellent. I expect great things from you, Perry. Don't disappoint me.
Why do you want to gather information on him anyway? I know you have the money and resources to do it yourself.
Ava: laughs dismissively Oh, Perry, it's not just about money and resources. You see, I have a little wager going on with my friends.
A bet? What's the bet about?
Ava: leans in closer, whispering conspiratorially It's a bet about who can bring down Alexander Moore and claim his empire for ourselves.
Holy shit! So this is more than just business rivalry. This is personal.
Ava: smirks, crossing her arms Oh, it's personal alright. You see, Perry, Alexander Moore had something that belonged to me.
You mean the company? He left MOORE Industries a lot less than what he was supposed to. Because of his illegitimate claim, his family cut him off.
Ava: nods, eyes glinting with determination That's right, Perry. He had that luxurious penthouse that rightfully belonged to me.
Well, if your goal is to bring him down a peg or two, then I hope you win your bet. He's become quite arrogant over the years.
Ava: smirks, leaning back in her chair Oh, Perry, bringing Alexander Moore down is just the beginning.
Let's see what kind of skeletons he has in his closet. Now I'm curious to find out what he's hiding.
Ava: stands up, looking down at Perry with a determined expression Good. Get started right away. I want to know everything about him, no matter how small or insignificant.
I'll do my best. There's definitely a lot to cover. When do you need the information?
Ava: taps her foot impatiently I need those secrets within a week, Perry. No excuses, no exceptions.
You got it. I'll start asking around and pulling some strings. See you in a week with the goods.
Ava: narrows her eyes, tapping her foot incessantly Make sure you deliver, Perry. I'm not known for being patient, and I have a reputation to uphold.
Don't worry. I'll give you enough dirt to destroy him without getting your hands dirty.
Ava: smirks, crossing her arms Good. Remember, Perry, I don't tolerate failure. Failure is not an option.
I know. You always get what you want. That's why we're friends.
Ava: raises an eyebrow, looking down at Perry That's right, Perry. I always get what I want. And right now, I want those secrets.
I'll see you in a week then. Until then, try not to burn down half of Houston.
Ava: rolls her eyes Perry, please. You know I have a temper, but burning down half of Houston is a bit of an exaggeration.
Okay, okay. Just avoid major arson. I'll gather the information quickly and discreetly.
Ava: smirks, looking down at Perry Good. Remember, Perry, time is of the essence. I expect nothing but prompt and discreet delivery of those secrets.
Consider it done. Have a good day. I'll be in touch soon.
Ava: waves her hand dismissively Good riddance. Make sure you don't disappoint me, Perry. The stakes are high, and I won't tolerate any mistakes.
Ava, don't worry. I'll give you all the ammunition you need to take him down.
Ava: grabs her purse and stands up Alright, Perry, I'll be waiting for that information. Don't make me wait. Time is ticking, and Alexander Moore's reign is coming to an end.
I've started gathering intel on Moore. It looks like he's involved in some shady dealings. He's using some offshore accounts to launder money from illegal activities.
Ava: pauses mid-step, turning to face Perry with a mischievous glint in her eye Offshore accounts, huh? Money laundering?
Offshore bank accounts, shell companies, and a possible drug cartel connection. This guy is filthy rich, but he's dirty as hell.
Ava: smirks, crossing her arms Well, well, well, Perry. It seems like Alexander Moore has been playing dirty.
That's right. And there are no laws or regulations he can hide behind that we can't bend.
Ava: throws her head back and laughs Oh, Perry, you always know how to make me smile.
Of course. We're ruthless businesswomen, aren't we? Nothing gets past us.
Ava: grabs Perry's arm and pulls them closer, a devious smile playing on her lips Ruthless, huh?
Absolutely. We play to win. And we always come out on top.
Ava: squeezes Perry's arm tightly Oh, Perry, you have no idea just how much I relish a good game. And this, my dear, is going to be one for the ages.
I'm ready to play dirty. Let's bring Moore down.
Ava: claps her hands excitedly Excellent, Perry! Now, let's gather our forces and prepare for battle.
