Mason drummed his fingers on his table, waiting for his call to connect. His eyes

were set on the door, in case Jenny walked in.

"Hello?" came the voice on the phone.

Mason straightened up. "Hello, Carson Webb."

"Yes?" Carson's voice was firm. "Who's this?"

"It's Mason Hunter. We spoke about you purchasing my company."

"Ah, yes. Mr. Hunter," Carson said, his tone softening slightly.

"How do we proceed? Should I come get the check, or is someone bringing the cash?" Mason asked, unable to hide his excitement.

Selling the company was the perfect idea like Joe had suggested it. There was nothing left-no employees, no future. Just Jenny. And when the sale was done, he would buy her that Ferrari, get his son, and make Cheryl's life miserable.

"Not yet, Mr. Hunter," Carson said. "We-"

"You want to check out the place?" Mason interrupted. "You're welcome anytime. It's spacious-"

"Mr Hunter," Carson cut in sharply. "I'm not interested."

Mason didn't hear that, he just went on. "What time would be convenient for you?

I can do it right now. You-"

"Mr Hunter!" Carson snapped. "I'm not buying."

Mason blinked. "What?"

"I changed my mind. Sorry."

His heart dropped and he stood up abruptly, sweat rolling down his neck. “Is... something wrong?"

"I have decided not to proceed with the purchase," Carson replied. "I can't deal with a convict. I don't trust your ways."

"I'm not a convict!" Mason yelled. At least not yet, but he didn't say that. He sat back down, struggling to steady his breath. "I understand your concern, but I assure you, everything is good."

"Sorry," Carson said.

"I can reduce the price," Mason said quickly. "You can pay less-"

"Goodbye, Mr. Hunter."

"Carson-" But the call ended. "Fuck!" Mason roared, flipping his table. Papers, pens, and empty bottles clattered to the floor. He stom

chest tight with rage.

When he placed his company for sale, he had expected a rush of offers. He was Mason Hunter; people should've been lining up.

Instead, only two people had shown interest. One never called back, and now Carson was out.

"Fuck!" he screamed, his voice echoing in the room.

His phone rang and he rushed to it, thinking it was Carson. When he saw it was
