“I know.”
As night fell deeper over the estate, the men of the Ford family sat scattered around the living room, each
wearing a tense, battle-ready expression.
Carl finally broke the silence, his stern face brimming with authority.
“They aren't married yet. It's improper for them to be alone in a room together!” His voice rumbled through the
space like distant thunder.
“Jayden, go see what they're up to.”
Waldo glanced at his watch, frowning heavily.
“It’s been twenty-eight minutes and thirty-four seconds. What exactly is Nate still doing up there? This isn’t just

the line.”
A tense hush fell over the Ford men upon hearing these words. It wasn’t a lack of conviction that silenced them,
but Nate's razor-sharp cunning and the irresistible advantages he’d laid before them.

Drawing a measured breath, Carl turned to Leland, the family butler.
“Check upstairs and remind them their coffee awaits—before it turns cold.”
The other three Ford men traded glances, their eyes glimmering with barely concealed amusement.
They'd expected Carl to hold his position firmly, yet here he was, crafting a convenient excuse.
Leland hesitated at the door to Corrine’s bedroom, poised to knock, when her voice drifted through the wood.
“Hey, to the left, yes, right there. Just a bit more, be gentle... don’t make a mess...”

“Mr. Hopkins,” Leland stated coldly, “Mr. Carl Ford requests your presence downstairs—before the coffee gets
