DEXTER: “Fifty percent profit will be made on every sale if we start this new venture, and…” I change the page on the projector, “plus the merger, bringing in new clients and all by August sales would have skyrocketed” I turn to my father, “questions?”He clears his throat, “that doesn't answer the question of how this new venture of selling fruit drinks would improve the company's profit. We are known for liquor, don't you think it'll give… I don't know some…identity crisis in the company?” “Well, as a matter of fact, this fruit line has been working in the Withmore's company and so far so good , they've been able to gather up profit that boosts up their sales by thirty percent six months after” “So Lorriane's feeding you this idea?”I groan, “believe it or not, I can think of myself and make decisions. She doesn't have to be behind anything.. we're going to be one company it's good we start introducing this line if not most of the profit made wouldn't really reflect on our book

(SPECIAL POV)AVA: He looked peaceful, too peaceful when he sleeps. His breathing was calmer, eyes were shut tight, his hands wrapped tightly round my waist…a smile creeps onto my face. I lay on his chest, sucking in the moment, tracing invisible circles on his torso, his tatoo…I never want this moment to end. “I can literally feel you smiling Ava..” I hear his deep sleepy voice.I giggle, “what? I'm not allowed to smile?” I sit up and look at him, “good morning..”He removes my hair from my face, “morning” he smirks, “how long have you been up?” “Just a while, I didn't want to wake you” He sits up and kisses me, deep, slow, “you should have. Come on, I'll cook” he stands up and puts on his clothes. “I'm right behind you” I smile and blow a kiss, he catches it, laughs and leaves and I fall on my bed…giggling and laughing to myself, my phone rings and I see Lorriane's name on the screen, my smile disappears.I clear my throat, “heyy”She sniffles, “Ava…”I sit up hurriedly, “are

DEXTER: “You look like a mess” the bright light blinded me and I groan. I turn and fall on the floor, my back stinging with pain, I look up and see Matteo all dressed up with a hint of disgust on his face. “Why are you here?” I fall back into my bed. “Your dad said to pick you up, you haven't been answering your phone all week,” he looks around, “your house is in an absolute mess” “Jes…can't I have peace to myself anymore? I'm on a break my father knows this” I groan and cover myself with my comforter, “tell him that when you see him” “Yea I'm not about to get in trouble with my Uncle because of you, get your ass up Dex. You have ten minutes or I'm dragging your ass to the office myself” “Wait…office?” “I don't know Dexter, he said something about a juice line invest….” “Fuck!” I grab my phone, scrolling past all the missed calls and messages, most from Lorriane, I go to my calendar, “shit shit shit!” I rush up. “Ten minutes” he scoffs and leaves my room.************I hav

MATTEO: “Brown or black?” I hold up two ties. “Black, you can never go wrong with black” Ava smiles as she continues staring at her laptop.I drop ties and hug her, earning a little laugh from her, “wanna tell me what's gotten you so worked up?” “Work, got so many paper work to fill out concerning the expansion I'm planning” “You're planning an expansion?”She turns to me and kisses me, “yep” “When…wait, when did this happen?” “A few weeks ago, a colleague of mine came up with the idea and it's been stuck in my head ever since” she smirks, “I have the funding, I just need to acquire more land and need some signatures from the government” “Oh wow” I smile and sip my coffee, “that's..that's really nice. I..I can help, my mum knowns a bunch of people in the government I'm sure she'd be happy to help” She clears her throat and closes her laptop, “I..I can handle it myself Matteo, I don't…” “Hey, hey no. I am not going to allow you do this by yourself, I can help and I'm not tak

LORRIANE: “I'm listening” I cross my hands, hoping for an answer.He takes off his suit, sweat already on his face from anger, “it's nothing Lorrie,” he sighs and pours himself a glass of whiskey.I scoff, “really? You're drinking…right now? Do I not deserve an explanation? You hit your father for fucks sake!!” I shout. “And he fucking deserved it!” he shouts back and I flinch, he sighs, “I'm…I'm sorry okay? He…he was just being his usual annoying self and he…it annoyed me”I sniffle and step back, “right. Guess date night's cancelled then” I clear my throat. “It doesn't have to be. We can order in” he gulps the whole glass of whiskey, “I'll get my phone” “There's…I'm not in the mood anymore Dexter. Let's call it a night” I push past him. “I said I'm sorry..” he says softly with a plea in his voice and I stop in my tracks, “I'm trying here. Tell me…tell what to do? How can I make this right?”I turn back to him, “what plan was your father talking about Dexter?” He sighs, “I to
