The Financial Advisor ON HOLD

Trevor's Pants

I sat on Trevor's lap in the sitting room and Jay walked in on the phone, "That's great. Uh-huh. We'll be here. Thank you for your condolences. I know Magnolia was a beloved advisor. We will miss her." Jay hung up and looked at Sam, "That was the jeweler. He thinks he might have found someone, babe. He also told me to say sorry for your loss about Maggie." Sam smiled, "Well thank you and that's amazing." 

I looked confused, "What's going on?" Sam looked at me, "Remember the vintage watch we took off the corpse of Hetty's dead robber baron husband?" Jay sighed, "If your talking to Maggie, she was kinda of busy trying to kill Haskell." Sam frowned, "Oh, yeah. That's right. Mags, we took a five thousand dollar pocket watch off of your great-great-great-great grandfather's corpse. We may finally have a buyer. Maggie, you left everything to us, but I felt it was wrong to use all your money." 

Jay and I shrugged, "She's/I'm dead, what does/do she/I need it for?" Everyone looked at the both of us freaked out and Sam looked at Jay, "You two just said the same sentence at the same time." Jay cheered, "I love my best friend! Up high!" Jay held out his hand for a high-five and I smacked it as Jay looked at Sam with a smile, "That's a great connection, babe." Sam smiled, "How much does he think we can get?" Jay smiled, "Enough to knock out our entire debt and not touch Maggie's fortune, babe. The guy's coming up from the city this afternoon to look at it. Ooh, man, we really need this sale to go through."

Trevor hugged my waist and Sam looked at us, "I'm never going to get used to Trevor and Mags dating. It was weird when she was alive, but now that she's happily dead, it's like he can't stop touching her." Jay gagged, "I didn't want that image babe." Jay hurried away with Sam trying to explain what she meant."

The doorbell rang and I hurried downstairs to see who it was, only to stop behind Trevor and the both of us looked at the man in the foyer, "Ari Cantor!?" Trevor looked at me in shock, "You know him?" Sam looked at us, "Wait, you both know him?" Trevor smiled, "Yeah, he's like my boy. Lia?" Sam frowned, "Maggie, how do you know him?" Ari frowned, "Wait, your Sam? Magnolia's sister?" Sam looked shocked, "Actually it was found out she was my cousin. Owner of Woodstone Manor. How did you know her?" 

Trevor looked at me and I smiled, "Ari and I worked together a lot in stocks." Ari smiled, "I knew this guy whose parents own this place, David Woodstone. It does make sense that Nolia is your cousin, David would always bring her into the office. When I found out that she was working for the same company, I kept the truth about her parents on the down low at David's ask." Hetty smiled, "My great-great-great-grandson, who was actually kind of a louse. You know what, Maggie, you're my only granddaughter. That's how this is going to work." Sam smiled, "David was my uncle. I didn't really know him, but his mom was my great-aunt Sophie, who Maggie and I inherited this place from."

Trevor smirked, "He was obsessed with strippers." Sam cleared her throat, "I heard he was a great guy, though." Ari smirked, "The only thing he cared about was his daughter. This place is really bringing back some memories for me." Jay smiled, "I could show you around, or do you want to see the watch first?" Ari hissed, "Nah, not yet." Jay looked baffled, "Cool, uh, yeah. Let's chitchat. That's how not big of a deal this whole watch transaction is to me. Uh, right this way." 

Jay showed Ari around and Sam looked at us when they left, "Maggie, Trevor you know this guy?" Trevor smiled, "Ari and I worked together. He was in my crew. We were, like, best friends." Sam looked at me, "I shrugged, "We worked together but we weren't close." Trevor looked at me, "That's why we fit together so well!" Sam looked shocked, "That's crazy." Trevor smiled, "You wanna know something crazy? He was here the night that I died." 

Sam looked fed up, "Okay, how did you die, and why aren't you wearing pants? Maggie, stopping looking at his ass." I looked away quickly and Trevor smirked at me, "You sneaky woman." Isaac looked at Sam, "You've never asked him about this?" Sam sighed, "I was always curious, but I didn't know the etiquette around ghost deaths." Alberta chuckled, "Tell her the story, Trev. I doubt Maggie heard it since we can't hear anything but you two during the night sometimes." I blushed and Trevor's face flushed, "All right."
