He decided to just stop trying and to allow grandfather Walter begin the introduction.."Welcome Drake," Grandfather Walter said, his old and slightly wrinkled face, adorned with a smile, a grim reminder to Drake that life is dynamic and that a day too will come, when he'd also look like his grandfather."Thank you, grandfather," Drake replied with a gentle nod."Alright, gentlemen," Grandfather Walter began.

Mrs. Simmons' voice came out soft and pleading, a complete contrast to the Mrs. Simmons he knew who had threatened to make him and his entire family suffer.“I'm sorry, ma'am but if you'll excuse me I've got better things to do.” Drake quipped and moved away, as he wasn't in the mood to listen to anything that Mrs. Simmons had to say.Mrs. Simmons ran after him and grabbed his arm, her desperation to have a word with Drake very much palpable.“Drake please, my husband's company is at the verge of shutting down.

It's a common trait found among the Sullivans. But I already have a plan and the bait has been thrown into the river already. I'm just waiting for the fish to give it a bite and it's bingo!" Rose replied, a sly smile tugged at the corners of her lips."What plan is that? Because trust me, I'm ready to be part of anything that can bring down the Sullivans and I'll not stop as long as I have breath in my lungs. Tonight's humiliation stung really hard and I'm not sure I'll be able to forget it in a hurry." Mrs. Simmons expressed her most deep seated anger and frustration."The plan is simple," Rose began.
