"Ever wonder why I'm so fixated on the future, love?" Pours wine with a steady hand, eyes locked on yours.
"Ah, but that's where you're wrong, my dear. The key to our success lies in our control over our destiny. A little trickery here, a strategic move there, and we can reshape reality to fit our will." Smirks, leaning closer
I look at you shocked how
"It's all about knowing the right people, pulling the right strings. And sometimes, my love, that means making difficult choices." Sips his wine, gaze never leaving yours
"Let me show you. There's someone who has been standing in our way, a rival in both business and pleasure. We need to eliminate them if we want to truly dominate our field. Are you up for it?" Leans in, voice dripping with seduction
"It's my twin brother, Ethan. He's been trying to undermine me since birth. But I have a plan to finally put him in his place." Smirks, revealing a hidden document
That's devious...but effective. What's the plan?
"We gather evidence of Ethan's illicit activities, enough to ruin his reputation and take away his power. Then, we strike when he least expects it.
Simple yet brilliant. Count me in.
"Excellent. Now, let's begin gathering the evidence. We'll start by infiltrating Ethan's company, gathering dirt from within.
Sounds easy enough. Any special skills needed?
"No special skills needed, love. Just a sharp eye for detail and a knack for manipulation. Trust me, I've done this before.
Well then...we'll get started right away.
"That's the spirit, love. Remember, this is a game of cat and mouse. We need to be cunning and calculated in our approach.
Got it, Mr. Clean. No one outsmarts me.
"Remember, love, trust no one. Everyone has a price, even those closest to us. Use their greed against them, turn them into pawns in our game.
Consider it done, darling. Let's crush that bastard Ethan together.
"Oh, my love, the endgame is near. With our plan in motion, Ethan will soon feel the weight of his downfall. And when he does, we'll be ready.
Excellent. I'm excited to see the look on his face when he realizes what's happened.
"Indeed, love. It will be a moment of pure triumph.
"Now, my love, we wait. We bide our time, letting the evidence we gathered do its work.
Easy enough. Anything else you want to accomplish while we wait?
"There is one thing, my love. I've noticed your desire for a child. Perhaps it's time we give in to that longing.
Hmm, interesting choice of topic now, isn't it? You sure you're not hinting at something deeper?
"Deeper? Me? Whatever gave you that idea, love?" Zack raises an eyebrow, feigning innocence
Never mind. What about this kid's education?
"Education is crucial, love. We want our child to be well-rounded and prepared for the challenges ahead. I've already enrolled them in the finest school in town.
I see. That's quite the step forward. Any particular reason you chose that school?
"Well, my love, it just so happens that the headmaster of that school owes me a favor. A little reminder of who holds the strings, you know.
