Skylar's P.O.V:

"Listen up, Lucille Perkson is not just the head of stable shelters okay? She also it's on the board of directors with several of our largest clients" Matt was speaking to me as I nodded "SO if we loose this case"---

"In my office" Lucien snapped his fingers, walking in and interrupting Matt.

Thank fucking goodness.

"And bring the clarity drilling IPO, Jerome Jenson is here"

"Lucille's case is all hands on the deck, Lucien"

"You can't just"---

"I can and I am" He said to him and looked at me "Now."

"But I wanna see where this conversation goes!"

"No one cares what you want, in my office"

"No, Lucille's case is all hands on deck...Lucien, I thought we were working on this together?"

"We are, same way a golfer and his caddy do"

Ouch.

"Now you if I have to repeat myself one more time..." Lucien looked at me as I got up.

"Sorry Matt, true destiny calls"

~o~O~o~

"Lucien" The man stood up and shook hands with him.

"Jerome, meet Skylar"

"She looks exactly like you"

"She's my little sister"

"And associate, a fact you keep forgetting to mention" I said as Lucien sat on his chair and I opened the files standing beside him.

"I'm not here to talk about" He passed Lucien a card.

"Elizabeth Bennet" He rose his eyebrows.

"What's Lily doing with a fake id?"

"Well, that's what I hope you can find out" He said as Lucien passed the card to me, the girl seemed familiar...

Weird.

I know.

"It slipped out of her pocket"

"Do you have any idea what's it got to do with?"

"But did she like actually put her name as Elizabeth Bennet?"

Both of them gave me an unamused expression...I actually wanted to know.

Whatever I guess.

"I don't know, Lucien, our relationship isn't the best, I don't need o know, I need to tea care of it"

"Okay..I'll see what I can do"

"Thanks"

"Skylar" He looked at me

"Yeah?"

"Find that girl, I have a deposition to attend"

"Bu"-

"Now"

"Well fuck you very much" I muttered walking out

"I HEARD THAT"

"YOU WERE MEANT TOO"

~o~O~o~

"Question" I walked up to girl mixing chemicals in Columbia University's lab "Why would someone as smart as you actually name yourself Elizabeth Bennet, from Pride and Prejudice?"
