She was surprised (for real). ”Eh? You are taking me out for lunch?” They haven't eaten out since… they never had a proper meal out. It was always in privacy so that Ellie is not embarrassed when Jasper gets too close, or too handsy, or too touchy, or too Jasper.

Jasper was amused with her reaction. ”You gave me your voting rights. That should be worth at least one lunch. Tell me what you feel like eating and I will make it happen. Or if you don't have any preferences, I will pick something.”

Ellie's excitement was obvious. ”Ah! Give me a minute to think. You caught me by surprise.”

Jasper smiled. ”I will give you… four minutes.”

Ellie pouted for a second before complaining: ”Not fair. That is how much Mr. Stocker has. I request at least two minute extension.”

Mr. Stocker snorted. ”Do I need to listen to you two… flirting shamelessly?”

Ellie rolled her eyes and looked at Mr. Stocker. ”No. You are free to leave. But know that even if you leave, you have less than four minutes. And unless you sign this…” Ellie placed her hand on the last folder in front of her. ”I'm not making that call.”

Mr. Stocker narrowed his eyes. ”What is that?”

As a response, Ellie pushed the folder toward him.

”This is extortion!”, he exclaimed as soon as he glanced at the document with a title 'Stock Transfer Form' .

”You can call it extortion if it makes you feel better.” Ellie was happy to see that the situation is finally sinking in for this loud old man. ”But I see it as the condition for your filth not to end up in the media. You are free to believe that I am bluffing. And you are free to leave. It's all up to you, Mr. Stocker. Which one is it? You have about three minutes to decide. How many people will get to see your sick fetish which involves underage…”

”Stop! Stop!”, Mr. Stocker panicked. He desperately wanted Ellie to stop talking.

”Pen, pen!”, he extended his shaky hand toward Jasper.

He swiftly signed in three places which were already marked for him.

”Make the call!”, he angrily said to Ellie when he pushed the folder with signed document to her.

Ellie glanced at the document and smiled before getting her phone.

”It's done.”, she said as soon as the person picked up.

”You are a cunning woman.”, Mr. Stocker said through his teeth while rage boiled inside him.

”It takes a cunning person to recognize another one, Mr. Stocker. With this, I believe you have no more business with K Industries. You are free to leave.”
