Gigi POV

"Do you need investors to boost back the business?"

"We have tried." Mr. Gavin said looking down.

"I mean, I am interested in real estate and I can help with a few millions." Clifford said.

"What?! This is the best day of this organization in a long time. Let me call my boss." He reached out for the telephone to dial a number.

"Not so fast." Clifford cut him off, "We need to know the condition of the business to know whether it can be revived before we delve into it."

"Hmmm" Mr. Gavin gave a sigh and shake his head. "I am not the CEO, I am only the general manager. This is a family business and the leader of the family inherits the business from their father when he retires or dies. I only follow orders, whether they are correct or not." Mr. Gavin looked up at us as if realizing he is giving out too much.

"Go on," Clifford said.

"Be gentle on the man." I mindlinked Clifford and he blocked me. I frown and nudge his arm with my elbow.

He ignored me while Mr. Gavin continued.

"I think we have earned our lessons after so many years of backwardness. I will persuade my boss to allow me try out some strategies I already have."

"That sounds nice, get across to him and let us hear from you." Clifford said standing up and looking at me as if to tell me let us go. I stood up too as Mr. Gavin did the same.

"Are you not buying again?" Mr. Gavin asked.

"We will consider the available ones on our next meeting." He said.

"Thanks for coming." Mr Gavin said as he walk us to the door.

"Clifford why did you block the mindlink and sidelined me throughout the conversation. You shouldn't have brought me here if you doesn't need me." I said pouring out my anger at Clifford for not involving me in the conversation.

"You had your mouth, you chose not to speak."

"Did you ask me for my opinion?" I retorted.

"But you where there. If you had anything to say you should have said it." Clifford responded.

"I don't like what you did in there. If I say I don't want to go with that plan will you change it?"

"No my Gi, please let's not ruin this beautiful tapestry fate is laying out before us."

"But you didn't involve me. It is your beautiful tapestry not ours."

"I am sorry dear," CLifford said putting his hand on my shoulder. "Should I kneel down for you?"

"Yes." Clifford began to take one knee down when I grabbed him to stand up. "Don't embarrass me in public please."

"I can do anything to make you happy."

"Okay, I have heard you. Let's go home."

"To our hotel room you mean?"

"No, to full moon pa..." I cut myself off realizing someone might be hearing us.

Clifford forcefully dropped himself into the car and I quickly enter so he won't drive off and leave me here because I have fumbled again.

Stopped at a restaurant on our way to the hotel to get some lunch. After buying two four packs, Clifford gave me two and he carried two as we walk to the car.

We put them in the rear seat and continue on our way to the hotel. The tension between us has eased down, and we begin to talk about how to crash Back Properties, so the pack members can revolt against Alpha Stone.
