We’re back on the road driving her back to her apartment. Her spirits have been replenished by seeing Chad. Apart from his apparent weight loss and weakened state, his personality is back to being happy and vivacious.

“Do you want to eat somewhere? It’s almost five thirty, I’m sure you’re famished.”

“Thanks but I have other plans for tonight.” She was staring at the window.

Plans with whom…Kyle? I wanted to inquire but held my tongue in check. She wouldn’t appreciate being interrogated like that.

I gripped the steering wheel harder. Bloody hell, compose yourself Knightly.

“I see, as you wish.” I can’t see. All I hear and see is my darkened jealousy and my blood pulsating like a manic boor.

I took hold of my phone and dialed Toby before I combust in wrath and ire. “Are you available for a few lagers?”

He laughed, “Sure mate. Lucy’s driving my head in and I’m going bonkers.”

“See you in thirty minutes then at the usual spot.” I ended the call and was about to put it away when it rang again.

“Knightly,” I bit out.

“Have I caught you in a terrible moment?” William Knightly II graciously spoke. Give it to granddad to mock me at the most uncertain times. If I didn’t love the stubborn man, I would’ve retaliated.

I scoffed, “Apologies grandfather, it’s been quite frantic for the past few days.”

“That comes with the territory lad. I must say that frantic is rather endearing, you will stumble upon greater quandaries much later on in the business. Hence the nature of my call, I want to congratulate you with the rather smooth acquisition of the Australian mining company. I’ve tried countless of times to close the gargantuan deal for the past two years but miserably failed. But you—my dear child—did it in two weeks. That’s quite astonishing. I suppose the old man trained you superbly well, eh?” he chuckled.

“You did and quite excellently sire, I am eternally in your gratitude.”

He chuckled throatily at my response, “Don’t be silly child, you are my blood and my heir. Your brilliance runs profoundly through our veins as did your departed father’s. Do see me when you get back from Dubai, we have much to discuss.” William sounded rather tired. I do hope he’s been taking care of himself. I need to see his assistant and make sure things are running smoothly in his household. I’m sure they are but I want to ease my mind and conscience. I will not forgive myself if he’s been neglecting himself and I didn’t do much to abate it.

“I certainly will, Grandfather. I’ll come straight to England after Dubai. I will see you Saturday.”

William cleared his throat—it was evident that he’s smoking his favorite Cuban cigars from his labored breathing. “Splendid! I will buoyantly await your arrival.” After another minute of bidding safe travels, we ended the call. My granddad is a brilliant wise man and I pay heed to his knowledgeable opinions and guidance.

My cell rang again. “Such a busy man you are Blake.”

I glanced at the lovely woman beside me.
