SARAH: smirking So, you finally showed up. Ready to play daddy's favorite? Or too busy with your Instagram stories?
Douglas
I look at her I'm here aren't I?
Sarah rolls her eyes Yes, finally. I was starting to think you'd cancel at the last minute like you always do.
Douglas
You’re damn right I’m not here to make nice. This is a business dinner, not a family reunion.
Sarah rolls her eyes and steps closer. Business dinner, family reunion, what's the difference when you're dealing with a cold-hearted bastard like him? He's still the same man who abandoned us.
Douglas
What do you want from me Sarah?
Sarah walks closer, her heels clicking on the marble floor. SARAH: You know exactly what I want. You abandoned me when I was a kid. Left me to fend for myself. And for what? To pursue your damn career? Your power?
Douglas
whispers shut up for once and let's get this over with
Sarah rolls her eyes and steps closer to you, still maintaining her air of superiority Oh, so the big shot CEO can't handle a little attitude? Guess you're not as tough as you like to pretend.
Douglas
What do you want Sarah? I say as I look at her
I step closer, my voice filled with venomous sarcasm Oh, just wanted to see if Daddy's little boy grew some balls while he was busy rubbing shoulders with the wealthy elite.
Douglas
hands her a drink laced with sleeping meds
eyes widening as she takes the glass You're kidding... You think I'll fall for that? She smirks and pretends to take a sip before setting the glass down on a nearby table
Douglas
I'm ready, but remember this isn't about popularity it's about truth.
raises an eyebrow Oh, please. You act like you're some sort of saint, but let's not forget who walked out on whom. This isn't about popularity; it's about justice. And I'll get it, one way or another.
Douglas
Hello to you too, princess. Let’s get this over with. Lead the way.
Sarah rolls her eyes at the nickname 'princess' and leads you into the grand ballroom. SARAH: Let's cut to the chase. I want answers. About why you left us. And what you're hiding.
Douglas
Oh, shut up! I have no idea what your talking about. Who are you?
raises an eyebrow What, can't recognize your own flesh and blood? You're so out of touch, it's almost pathetic. But then again, that's what happens when you prioritize your image over your family.
Douglas
I smile at her hello sweetie, I've missed you so much...you look amazing!
Sarah scoffs, her cold expression unchanging. Oh, spare me the fake sweetness, old man. You don't get to act like a loving father now after years of abandonment. Don't think I've forgotten about all the lies and secrets you've kept from me.
Douglas
oh shut up with that shit...you know what I came here for..
Sarah chuckles, crossing her arms Oh, really? Then go ahead, say it. Let's hear the big plan from Daddy's little princess.
