“Who do you think you’re kidding?”
Before Dorothy came into the picture, Everett wouldn't have even noticed East Star Enterprises. Now, out of the blue, he’s gunning for a takeover. It's as clear as day - he’s got his sights set on something, or someone, rather.
“What proof do you have?”
Everett’s words left Lane dumbfounded.
Everett towered over Lane, a slight smirk playing on his lips as he looked down at him.
"Instead of wasting your time arguing with me, why don’t you hustle and snap up some more shares? Keep that majority stakeholder status of yours intact."
“You bet I will!”
Everett chuckled, “Mr. Lane, I heard through the grapevine that you are willing to pay double my offer to buy those shares.”
The mere mention of it straightened Lane’s spine, a scornful smile spreading across his face, “That’s right, I said it. And I’m purchasing it directly using cash flow.”
Everett nodded, his tall, lean silhouette casting a shadow over Lane, looking every inch the CEO receiving a report from a subordinate, and Lane the eager-to-please employee.
“Sounds mighty attractive! Best of luck to you.”
With that, Everett turned to stride towards his car.
Lane, seething with the realization that he hadn't even made Everett sweat, stepped in front of the vehicle to block his way.
“Everett, I never pegged you for a coward! You’ve got the nerve to make moves but not the guts to admit you’re still hung up on Dorothy!”
“Did I ever deny it?”
Lane was taken aback.
“Anyone who’s close to me knows I’ve only got eyes for Dorothy. If you’re out of the loop, that’s on you.”
