ARES RUSSO

I've been sitting in the same chair for two hours. Eagerly waiting for this man to accept our proposal.

I'm grateful to Dom and Stefano agreeing to help me. This is a two million dollar account that could possibly eradicate our environmental issues and make houses and homes better. He just needs to accept.

I'm at the edge of my seat and Dom escorts him out. His assistant walks out too but Stefano guides her to the kitchen so that they could have alone time. I watch through the glass doors as Doms talks to him. Dom visibly lights up before they walk out the door together. Krystal walks in to give me more work that I've missed for the past two weeks and I get to it.

"Krystal, can I get my glasses?" I say after an hour of looking at words on paper. I don't generally need glasses but if I've been looking at something for too long, I'll need them.

She gives me my glasses and I get back to reading and signing and filing. Dom comes back inside with Stefano and their eyes widen at the work load.

"This is enough for a month." Dom says amazed and flips through the stack.

"This stuff dates back to two months ago, when I had asked him to handle everything." I say frustratingly. I hadn't heard from anyone about the lack of work. Krystal also thought everything was being handled.

I lost two accounts due to lack of payment and alot of customers were complaining about their houses.

"We'll help with anything." Stefano says and I look between them in relief.

"Thank you so much, just do what you can." I hand them a bunch of papers and continue with the ones infront of me. Dom asks me questions about certain papers and Stefano do the same.

They just sort and file papers. They give me anything needs my signature. So many contracts that I had, I could still sign them. I need to first meet with them all.

"Sir..." Krystal pops her head through and silently apologises. I shake my head and take my glasses off to rub my eyes.

"Is there more papers?" I ask and she shakes her head with a smile.

"Ms Campbell is here to see you, should I let her through?"

"Something you should know about Ms Campbell," Dom starts to say while looking at the papers, "she does not like to be kept waiting."

"Ive figured as much." She says with a chuckle before walking back to the foyer.

"Have you checked your balance statements?" Stefano asks with a smirk.

"Are you bankrupt?" Dom asks with humor in his tone. He looks up and laughs at Stefanos eyes roll.

"She only spent one hundred and forty thousand dollars. I have a feeling Lorelai is much worse."
