“Peter!”

“Yes, big brother? Do you think being the CEO intimidates me? It doesn’t. It hasn’t for a long time. Grandma gave me a responsibility, and you have no right to contradict what she asked me to do.

I tell him this restaurant belongs to him, and I’m just a worker, but he insists he’s only a customer.
