"I can't believe it, He has the audacity to talk to like he's someone important. I swear harry you gave them a little attention and they think they are above me." Barbara bragged into Harry's office and ranting.

"He thinks he holds power over me, he thinks i'm scared of him," She scoffed. "Like I haven't spent a lifetime in this lifestyle. I know all the ins and out in this family"

"What are you on about,Babs? Who got your knickers in a twist?" Harry said partially amused, used to her sister's ranting.

"Who do you think I'm talking about?" She said, glaring at him with annoyance half expecting harry to know the answer. When Harry just raised his eyebrows in retaliation she huffed and said "your husband, Harry. Just because he got to sign some papers he thinks he's someone important."

Harry laughed at that, He threw his head back and laughed "Come on Babs! You can't be serious. That boy, that follows you like a puppy is the one showing his claws?"

When Barbara scoffed he stifled his laugh

"So you are saying that louis, that small scared, innocent louis is threatening you with 'The power' he has over YOU? This has to be a joke."

Barbara scoffed at his words "you don't know harry. Ever since he returned from the USA he's not the same. He's egotistical, he's power hungry, he's giving me bad Vibes. I'm telling you he's onto something. Be careful around him and don't give him too much control over you. He can hurt you, badly"

Now it was Harry's turn to laugh, he threw his head back and laughed when his laughter died down he scoffed and addressed what Barbara said " He can hurt me? Me? That tiny ass has the Power to hurt me? Are you even hearing yourself?" He scoffed "hurt me. Babs you are over thinking. he's the same boy he was when he went to The USA."

Asshole: Come upstairs, in my office. I have something important to discuss.

Stubborn: I'm coming.

Asshole: you did last night, didn't you. 😏

Stubborn: Seriously? Are you fucking serious right now? I'm so done with you 🙄😒

Stubborn: 'ON MY WAY' Happy? 😒

After two minutes louis entered the room with anyone expressions which quickly turned into amusement as his eyes fell on an annoyed Barbara sitting at Harry's desk.

"Harry, Barbara" Louis said with amusement, his eyes had a glint of mischief he nodded at both. Like saying Hello without saying hello.

"Louis" Harry said equally amused but for different reasons.

"I wanted to talk to you both about the casinos line we are about to inaugurate." He said look at them both.

"What about it harry?" Barbara asked.

"I have decided to take down my responsibility from them. I wanted one of you to handle that line." Harry said "I trust you both enough. I know you are capable of handling new business and take it to its peak. So this responsibility is just one less burden on me."

"And who that is?" Louis asked sitting on the sofa besides Barbara calmly. His posture relaxed and confident at the same time.

"You." Harry said making Barbara yell "what the hell harry" In exasperation. While louis just looked at him with shock. He cannot believe Harry can trust him with one of his biggest businesses. Styles casinos are one of the biggest casinos in the world and one of harry largest legal businesses. These Casinos make his black money white and the government out of his back.
