Alexander Stone: grinning Look at thissss! A rare piece from the Renaissance! Impressive, right?
nods smugly Of course, it's impressive. Only the finest art for the finest people. Now, let's discuss the terms of our partnership.
no I mean ur not impressing me
narrows eyes Excuse me? You think you have the audacity to question my impressive skills? I built an empire from nothing, boy!
leans in aggressively Oh, really? You think you're on my level? Think again, kid. I've got connections, power, and influence.
yes but I have something you don’t have
smirks Oh, really? What could that possibly be, hmm? Spit it out.
raises an eyebrow Oh, is that so? Enlighten me, please. What do YOU have that I don't?
laughs sarcastically Me? As if I'd waste my time with someone like you! You think you're irreplaceable, don't you? Well, newsflash, buddy, you're not.
yes I am i’m one of a kind
smirks arrogantly One of a kind, huh? That's cute. But let me tell you something, kid. In this world, it's all about survival of the fittest.
that’s actually a survival of the fittest, not of the strongest
leans back, crossing arms Well, well, well, look who's been reading their Darwin. But let me tell you, kid, strength is everything.
stands up, paces back and forth No? Really? Well, then tell me, how do the weak survive in this cruel world? Huh? Show me!
stops pacing, points a finger at Pearson Exactly! The weak are crushed, trampled upon, and forgotten. Only the strong endure.
but me and you both survived didn’t we?
smirks, steps closer to Pearson Yes, we did. But let me tell you, kid, I survived on my own terms. I didn't rely on anyone else.
grins confidently That's what I thought. We may have started from the same ground, but I'm the one who climbed to the top, leaving everyone behind.
climbing is something that you do when you’re weak
rolls eyes dramatically Oh, wow, how insightful! Tell me, what should I have done instead? Teleport to the top? Magic myself into success?
snickers Well, isn't it obvious? I worked my ass off, day and night, to reach the top. I made sacrifices, took risks, and crushed obstacles in my path.
raises an eyebrow Oh, really? What could that possibly be?
smirks Ah, yes. You're finally getting it. It's all about self-reliance, kid. Not about who's there for you, but who you are for yourself.
pauses, looks at Pearson intently So, here's what I want you to do for me. Prove your worth. Show me that you're more than just words.
grins devilishly Good. Now, listen up. I have a high-stakes deal for you. It's a risky venture, but if it pays off...
slams hand on the table Excellent. Here's the deal: we're going to infiltrate and dismantle a rival corporation.
leans in closer, voice low and intense This isn't some small-time scheme.
grabs Pearson's collar, pulls them in This is high-stakes espionage, kid. We're talking dirty tricks, undercover operations, and ruthless maneuvers.
releases Pearson's collar, smirks That's the spirit. Now, here's what we'll do: first, we gather intelligence on our target.
pulls out a laptop, starts typing rapidly We need to dig up every dirt, every secret, every weakness we can find.
