TANNER
Iusually love working long days and nights with Connor here at the distillery. It is the way we have worked for years. But with the issue in the aging rooms, then us going through numbers all night last night, then online legal meetings today with Sawyer, it has been days since I last saw Victoria.
I look at my watch again, seeing it is now early in the evening. I told her I would come back over today, and I hate not being a man of my word. I have sustained on some text messages, and while she didnât mention it, I already know she has been into town because Rochelle told me when she came out today to deliver lunch to all the staff.
âSo our financial projections are solid for the next eighteen months. We have had year-on-year growth since you started Whitemanâs, Dad, and it is only getting better,â Connor says with a wide but tired smile on his face.
âWe work hard. We deserve it. Whispers deserves it,â I tell him, sitting back, exhausted. Numbers fly through my mind, legal contracts that I need to sign, the new Van Cleef deal that needs distributing dates finalized. My team has also started farming the barley so I can get started on making the next batch. But none of that has the same amount of brain space as Victoria.
âWant to go to the bar for dinner?â Connor asks, looking at me. We need to eat and relax and stop talking about business.
âWe should, it is Lacyâs last week there. Come next week, she will have her own office here and be working on the marketing plans for the next twelve months,â I mention, watching him for his reaction.
âHer mom is pretty sick, right?â Connor asks with a frown, and I nod.
âCancer,â I tell him, and he sighs. It is a shit disease; Iâve lost too many people to it already. âIâm going to start building the ranch,â I tell my son, changing the subject, and he looks at me with surprise.
âWhy? You have had that piece of land for decades. You love living here on-site at the distillery.â A mix of concern and confusion takes over his face.
âItâs time. I will still live here, but I want to start thinking of the future, and having some space away from it all will be good. Griffin already made the plans and I have approved them. He has started on the block already.â It is down the back roads, not far from Huxley and Hudsonâs family estate, just outside of town. Secluded, but not too far away.
Billionaire Boulevard is what the locals call it. The land sizes are huge, the trees tall, thick, and old, offering complete privacy. People who own ranches or land in that area spent millions sealing the roads, erecting privacy fencing, and putting in all the necessities, such as satellites and cables to run their corporations from there if they wish. Connor himself purchased a piece of land there a few years ago as well.
