67 Hostile Environmen (2/2)
Mary gave a simple nod and started plotting.
Rose tried to put on the hood but didn't quite understand how to do so.
Seeing her struggle so much Grace finally helped her. Pulling the cape portion over Rose's shoulder she then loosely ties the ribbons around the neck before putting the hood up.
”There, Little Red Riding Hood ready for her big adventure,” Said Grace happily
”Hehehe yes adventure,” Said Rose with an exciting nod before running to Bella with the hood bobbing.
”Let's play” Said Rose to Bella
Bella then nodded and signed ”Can I see Icy first?”
”Hmm yes this way,” Said Rose before dragging Bella by the hand
As Bella and Rose went, the mature adults got a chance to chat.
Sitting down on the L-shaped couch they got themselves comfortable.
Grace first went through her bag and pulled out the contract ”I understand we agreed on 70% of the selling fee's going to you with the addition of 2% company shares but due to announcing your identity as Lonely Hunt. The price I put forward can be said to be too little so changed the company shares portion to a comfortable 5%”
A loud audible gulp echoed from all three of them.
Mary was the first to react as she quickly fixed her glasses and read seriously ”It's true”
Mary then took a picture of the contract and said ”This is a lot better than I expected. I say you sign and become a millionaire”
Theodore took a minute to read before signing it and said ”Pleasure doing business”
”Now I would like to discuss the idea of making your clothes merchandise an official Vague \u0026 Finer product,” Said, Grace
”At the moment I don't have any ideas for merch” Said Theodore
”Hmm well if you do want to produce mercy please come to me for help. I'm willing to put the same offer if necessary” Said Grace with her usual emotionless face yet eager voice.
”Seeing as I have a share in the company I guess it would benefit me either way” Said Theodore
”Well you are the highest shareholder not including myself,” Said Grace simply
Mary, Sophie, and Theodore voiced their doubts with a simple word ”Huh?”
”Yes their currently three shareholders you, me, and Dad,” Said Grace
”Wait, wait I have more than your Dad, Mr. Thompson?” Asked Theodore still in shock
”Yes Dad has 3% of the shares making you my, right-hand man,” Said Grace a smug grin slowly appeared before it quickly went back to being emotionless
Mary and Sophie had caught the grin and thought 'Urgh we got played'
”Well then seeing as I'm your right-hand man I should put some effort in. I'll try to make some mercy. Well our lunch should be ready” Said Theodore before leaving for the kitchen
As Theodore left the living room it turned airily quiet. Just cold stare down between women.
”We know what you're doing” Said Sophie while crossing her arms
”Whatever do you mean I'm just here to make Theodore my business partner and get Bella a playmate,” Said Grace
”Theo is taken” Said Mary
”It's okay I'm not here for simple man,” Said Grace
Mary and Sophie stared blankly not sure what she means.
”I have 3 moms they are all beautiful and intelligent women. I asked them why they were willing to share dad they just laughed and said 'Your dad is not a simple man. He is greedy, indecisive, kind, considerate but overall he stands above the rest' I want to be next to the man who will eventually stand above the rest” Said Grace with nothing but pride her voice
Sophie looked at Grace thought 'That's not a family that's a cult'
”Don't look at me like that and no they weren't apart of 2016's polygamy scandal, they got married in the Philippine,” Said, Grace
”Lunch is ready” Shouted Theodore from the dining room
Grace immediately got up and left to join Theodore at the table.
With Grace gone Mary decided to voice her thoughts ”She isn't wrong about Theodore eventually standing above the rest”
”So your nuts too huh.” Said Sophie
”We both know Theo is a monster so is it weird to believe that he'll be someone who takes the world by storm? If anything it's just a question of when” Said Mary
”Fine but you still need to get with Theo,” Said Sophie before getting off the couch to get some food
”Yeah I know” Said Mary before following Sophie
