Travis stood up and walked out of the room in shock and he asked quietly, "How the hell do you get my number?"

"I have my ways, Travis. Anyways, news went around like wildfire that you've signed the succession contract, is that right?" Bianca asked.

"And what's that to you?" Travis questioned.

"I thought you left and you're never coming back. You should have just stayed lost and stayed to your principles that you're never coming back or taking your inheritance. I thought that was the plan."

Travis shrugged. "Well, plans have changed. I never even needed to sign a succession contract before I took what belongs to me. It was all mine from the beginning."

The line was quiet for a while then Bianca sighed. "Wow, is that so? You're no longer angry at your father?! You should have just stayed angry instead of coming back and ruining everything. I thought you didn't want it."

    Everyone wasn't sure they heard right."He signed the contract?""The useless son of a bitch signed the contract?""How could he of all people have such power?"Travis sighed, getting fed up with how they were wasting too much time. He looked at his watch and announced, "Five minutes is far gone! I'm not sure you guys are taking things really seriously. Also, I could sign this and you can't because I know Mr. Pattinson and he owes me a favor."Alison once again immediately started yelling, "There's no way! Stop trying to bluff your way out of this!
