Jace: shifts uncomfortably, avoiding eye contact I-I'm sorry for dragging you into that mess. It was... reckless.
wait what are you doing here?
Jace: sighs deeply, takes a step closer Look, I didn't mean to involve you. But you were there, and... well, you're too good to pass up.
you're lucky I don't call the police she says as she looks back to her book
Jace: smirks, crossing his arms Oh, come on now. Where's your sense of adventure? Can't handle a little chaos?
no I can handle it I just don't like unnecessary complications
Jace: rolls his eyes, scoffs Unnecessary complications? Life's too short to play it safe, my friend.
whatever she puts her book down
Jace: leans in, smirking You know what? I respect your desire for simplicity. But sometimes, life throws curveballs at us.
Jace: paces around the room, gesturing animatedly See, life's like a canvas, waiting for an artist to paint it with vibrant colors.
I understand the metaphor but it's a bit pretentious
Jace: laughs, raises an eyebrow Pretentious? Nah, I'm just speaking the truth. Life's too short to play it safe.
I agree but I have a job and the rest of my life can wait until this book is published
Jace: stops pacing, leans in closer Well, maybe it's time you take a break from that boring routine and embrace some chaos.
Jace convinces Readyna to join him in a high-stakes art heist.
Jace: grins mischievously Alright, listen up. This is gonna be the heist of a lifetime. Big money, big risks, big thrill. You in?
I'm not exactly in the mood for trouble. What exactly is this art heist?
Jace: smirks, pulls out a map and points to a prestigious art gallery We're going to swoop in, snatch up some priceless masterpieces, and disappear into the night.
Jace: claps his hands together Dead serious, my friend. We'll have our inside man providing us with the security codes, and I've got a team of experts ready to execute the plan.
Jace: narrows his eyes, leaning in closer You're passing on the chance to make a fortune? To live life on the edge?
Jace: smirks, leans back, crossing his arms Well, maybe I can change your mind. How about I sweeten the deal?
