he blabbered on as he leaned against the door, “keeping your car this clean while being a Lakers fan is really impressive. I mean… not even a random water bottle? That's some dedication." The Uber driver flashed him an awkward smile. “Yeah," he grunted before looking down to confirm Gina's payment. “Look, Turner–" “Thomas," Tom corrected with a grin. “Or just Tom is better." “Yeah… Tom,” the driver said, keeping his weird smile. "I guess I just… like to keep things organized, yeah?" “Respect, respect," Tom said, nodding. “My room is actually really different. Like… it looks like a tornado lives there. Just this morning–”

He had been tempted by Tom's offer of help to secure more power within his company, but he knew better. Compared to Tom, Damon was a far more dangerous adversary.

I just didn’t know how a crime lord took a vacation without doing what my family did. Tom walked in, pulled his tie off, and dropped onto the couch next to me. “That good?” I turned down the volume and wrapped my arm around one of his. “Pretty much.” He sighed. “You remember that douche Phil?” I frowned. “Didn’t he name himself after, like, Dean Martin?” Tom laughed tiredly. “Sinatra. But he figured out what we’re doing with the women.”

The combination exuded a sense of elegance and sophistication, reflecting the refined taste and grandeur of the Tommy family.

A burly bouncer stood behind him, pushing the wheelchair as Tommy addressed me. "Welcome to Perlemo," he said warmly, his voice filled with a mix of kindness and power. Tommy acknowledged my growth, comparing it to that of my father. I couldn't help but feel a sense of pride at being likened to my father, a man I greatly admired.

She won't stop talking unless it's a serious situation, while Keith was the silent type you would always find her with a book and oh, she's also handy for she acts like a walking encyclopedia. They are opposites and so the two of them balance each other." when Kobe finished his explanation he returned Tommy to me. Tommy grinned with his perfect white teeth. I envy him though. When I was a kid, I always smile with my toothless grin.

He knew well that Tom’s row was filled with trauma cases, and since Tom was such a coward, Bob couldn't resist playing with him further. "Don't be a baby, Tom! Just check the neck. Don't let the state of the rest of him distract you!" Bob teased. Tom took a deep breath, steadying his nerves, and attempted to continue with what little courage he had left. "Excuse me, Mr. Corpse. I just need to check your neck. Please don't haunt me; I’m a good guy!" he whispered. Hearing this, Bob wanted to laugh even harder.

He bolted upright when Charles entered. "Rest easy, Tom. You've earned it." Charles offered him a goblet and poured him a glass. Tom took it and drank quickly, looking away as though he was embarrassed about the situation. Oddly, Charles felt uncomfortable as well. He was used to being admired by women, but he'd never had anyone worship him as a hero before. It was unsettling. He was not a man one should try to be like. There were far better gentleman out there, like the Earl of Pembroke for one. James was a bloody saint compared to Charles. "Tom, we need to talk."

"Maya, can I talk to you alone for a moment?" Tom asked suddenly.... I choked on my drink as I asked "Me?" "Unless there is someone else called Maya"....he replied teasingly.
