“Is that not going to mean you are working for the champions? Why do that when you are already well to do yourself?"

His mother's friend asked. Though they were well to do themselves, their children were letting their guides down so they couldn't help but envy Peter and his achievement at that age.

    Margaret's show off today took another level. She walked into the house with a lot of pride in her. The way she carried herself was enough to send the others screaming.

Looking at Stephen, who was standing by Alice's side, the smile on her face widened more than before. “I would like to show you around guys, what are you waiting for? Let's go in." She said with a loud tone, making sure that even those who stood far off for fear of the security harassment could hear her.

If it wasn't for 2. wouldn't have been able to visit it.

    “What nonsense are you talking about? Stephen asked.

    Danvers sat alot in his office staring at the prices of evidence the lawyer threw to the bin and judged everything in Raven's favor, recording and chats with his associates. The more Danvers thought of it, the more he realized how pathetic the economy they lived in had become.
