"You absolutely do not have a choice," Clara said, pointing her fork at him with a grin. "You are new here, you are single, and Daniel's sister is wonderful. This is practically fate."

Maxwell was about to respond to her, however someone beat him to it.

"Clara, stop it. Maxwell will make his own decision," Isobelle said.

"I'm just saying," Clara continued, completely undeterred. "You are eventually going to have to get into a relationship, and Daniel's sister is genuinely wonderful.” She turne

    Maya looked at her. Then the corner of her mouth curved into a mischievous smile. "You're happy," Maya said with a teasing undertone in her voice. "Yes," Hazel said simply. "My day went well. I attended an executive meeting. I think I'm allowed to be happy about that.""You are," Maya agreed. She looked away, ostensibly at the street ahead of them. "Definitely. That's definitely why you're smiling."Hazel glanced at her. And she could tell that Maya was doing her thing again, that she had been doing a lot lately, ever since that day at the lake. "What does that mean?""Nothing," Maya said pleasantly. "Just that you're smiling. Which is nice. Very nice." She paused just long enough. "Are you sure it's just the meeting though?"Hazel stopped walking and expression darkened, her eyes narrowing as she gave Maya a disapproving look. Maya took two more steps before she turned around, her expression the picture of innocence. “Are you sure it doesn't have to do with a certain Sterling?”"Re

    Maxwell's expression didn't change dramatically. But something behind his eyes did. Actually he was already exhausted that Isobelle was still pushing this on him. And the even more exhausting part was that the person she was trying to set him up with didn't even like him at all. And neither did he in any romantic way. At this point it felt like Victoria and her were competing, trying to see who between them would find him a wife first. It was something he didn't agree to at the moment. If he will ever get married, he wanted to do it by himself and not because it was set up by someone."Isobelle," he said."Camille asked about you," Isobelle continued, completely ignoring his tone. "Just casually. Nothing serious. She mentioned your name and I thought that was interesting considering how she feels about you."Maxwell paused, surprised that Camille would speak about him. But then he thought: it makes sense, that she would speak about him, to vent after he annoyed her by accusing her

    Some time passed with everyone in the room debating. And Maxwell was still quiet.Eventually the debate hit a wall. Everyone was talking over each other and nobody was winning.Victoria tapped her pen on the table, silencing the room. Then she looked straight at Maxwell."Maxwell," she said. "You've been quiet. What do you think?"The room went still. Hazel felt a cringe coming on. She expected him to stammer or say something safe like, "I agree with both sides."That thought actually made her want to laugh before he had even actually said it. ‘Please say that. I'm dying to see you make a fool of yourself,’ she thought to herself, looking at him with an expectation.Maxwell leaned forward. The change in his energy was sudden. He didn't look like a ghost anymore.The truth was that he had only been quiet because this was a very serious matter and he'd rather listen and think about what was best for Sterling Industries than debate people."The fear of glitches is real," he said. His voi

    Victoria looked at Julian, her expression businesslike. "It's serious enough that we can't wait until Monday," she said. "Let's wait for the others. Then Natasha will explain how much trouble we're actually in."Trouble?Maxwell was now concerned after hearing that. What trouble could Sterling Industries possibly be in? To the rest of the world, Sterling Industries was an invincible fortress, a company worth hundreds of billions. He hadn't thought it could be in trouble.But Maxwell wasn't naive. He had seen companies fall before. He knew that the bigger they were, the harder they hit the ground, and the more people they crushed on the way down.As the future owner, the pressure of Victoria's words settled on him differently than it did on the others. This wasn't just a corporate problem to solve; this was his legacy, and it was under threat before he'd even fully stepped into it. He shifted in his seat, his earlier calm replaced by a cold and sharp focus. He needed to hear every word

    Maxwell was slightly taken aback by that. A favor? What could she possibly want to ask him? He simply gave a nod anyways. “Sure. What's up?”Natasha smiled faintly, glad that he was open to hearing her out. She took a small breath. "My sister's wedding is in three days. I need a plus one."Maxwell stared at her for a moment. Of all the things he had expected her to say, that hadn't been anywhere on the list. Also why was she telling him that? “Okay, and what do I have to do about it?” He asked. Although he already realized now that she wanted him to probably be her plus one, which was even more surprising that she would ask him that. “And I want you to be my plus one.” She said "Why me?" he asked. And he genuinely meant that question. He had only known Natasha for a shot time so he didn't think there was any reason she would choose him. "Surely you know other people you could ask.""I do," Natasha said, without missing hesitating. "But everyone I can think of asking right now, are

    Maya took a few steps towards Hazel until she was close enough to nudge her shoulder, a teasing smile was spreading across her face. "Wow. Staring much? If I didn't know better, I'd say someone looks a little jealous to see her boss with another woman."It was only once Maya's voice echoed in her wars that Hazel realized it. She blinked, immediately snapping out of whatever trance she had been in. A sudden, defensive heat appeared on both her cheeks. "What? Jealous? Are you out of your mind?" she shot back in an annoyed and harsh whisper.Maya opened her mouth to speak up. However Hazel gave her a serious look. "Don't you dare say a word," Hazel said immediately before Maya said anything. Maya closed her mouth. Then she opened it again and finally said,"I was just going to say….""I know what you were going to say and the answer is no." Hazel started walking again, cutting through the aisle with more purpose in her steps this time. "I was lost in thought. I didn't even realize I was

    When Maxwell burst back inside the building, the first thing that hit him first was then heat. Even in the hallway, away from the actual fire, the air was thick and hot. It burned his throat with every breath. The wet shirt helped, but not much.Maxwell kept low, moving fast. The smoke was worse i

    Maxwell noticed that she was just standing there without sitting down and it made him a little uncomfortable. “Is everything alright?” He asked."Cedric called me this morning," she said slowly. "Told me someone might come asking for the materials he left with me. But he also warned me that Frank D

    Maxwell ignored Julian and his hostility and kept his eyes on Victoria. "Cedric called Frank a dishonest pig right before he stormed out of his office. Then ten minutes later, the section Cedric was working in explodes. That's not a coincidence.""Cedric could've been upset about anything," Victori

    The next morning, Maxwell was waiting in the lobby when Kieran pulled up at exactly 7 AM.He climbed into the passenger seat. "Morning.""Morning," Kieran said, pulling into traffic. Maxwell looked at him. "Where are we going?""Sterling Manufacturing. One of our production facilities about an hou
