Annette smirks feeling proud to ever present her father with something that will make him feel disappointed over Jordan's actions, he was proud of him and even trusted him as his son not so long ago isn't it?
So what will become of him now?She side smiles watching Petey closely analysing his facial expressions as he watches the video and of course she just had to show him that Jordan is nothing but a reckless deliquent and he is nothing better than a street rat and is not a trustworthy subordinate to earn Petey's trust at the first place, he is nothing but a disappointment for the business and for that he should be casted out and treated like a street rat that he really is.
Petey's phone rings and he huffs excusing himself with Dylan to the balcony side.
Dylan: Is it him?
Petey: No it's Daniel.
Dylan: What does he want?
Petey shrugs and then answers the call putting it on loud speaker.
Petey: Daniel my old friend, what a surprise."Hey Lambert, how are you it has been a while."
Petey: I am fine my friend, I suppose that you are well too judging by how you even pushed yourself to call me today. What do I owe this pleasure?
"Oh well I am a teacher and I can't complain that much about life except for dealing with your rebellious kids.
I have bad news by the way and, it's about your boy Jordan."Petey sighs and then looks up at Dylan.
"Your number is recorded on his school documents alongside his acting parents but I thought that I should call you first as his father my friend and report to you."
Petey: What did he do now?... Could it be about this video of him with that Adams boy that is circulating all over the internet?
"Yes that's about right and we are expecting parents tomorrow afternoon for a meeting."
Dylan: You could have called the acting parents Daniel to deal with this matter not Boss.
"I know that of course... but there is something else that won't concern them, hence I called Petey instead and I can't discuss it over the phone.
So do you think that you can make it to this side tomorrow afternoon?... It is a serious matter Petey more than this video issue itself and I can't just discuss it with strangers that are pretending to be his parents. I need you to deal with this yourself so please do come and be a father to your son, just this once."Petey sighs.
Petey: Okay then I will be there, I will take a flight tonight and be part of the meeting myself tomorrow afternoon.
"Okay I will see you tomorrow then."
Petey: Sure..
The call ends and Petey sighs looking up at Dylan.
Dylan: Do you think it is smart for you to attend the meeting on your own? Why not take Thomas with you, just for him to be the front?
Petey: No he doesn't have to be there, you heard for yourself that Daniel wants me there to discuss something important that doesn't concern the actors.
Dylan: But you will be there, you just need Thomas to cover your front as Jordan's father Boss.
Petey: I understand what you are saying Dylan but I don't want him to be on my way of scolding that boy, he won't scold him like I would.
Dylan: Oh just look at yourself, now you have a sudden urge to be a father to that boy. Why don't you just bring him back home and tell him the truth so that you can father him properly?
Petey: I am really dying to do that, believe me I am. And for starters I have to be there for him when needed me to be. So we have to fly there tonight.
Dylan: No you should go on your own, I will stay behind and manage the business on your behalf.
Petey: Okay do just that...well let me go and prepare for my flight then.
Dylan nods and Petey excuses himself heading back inside.
Dylan: Oh boy... I have a bad feeling about this.
