Doris knew Ryan was doing it on purpose, but she had no choice but to let him have the upper hand.
Suppressing her annoyance, she asked, “What do you want from me? Just say it clearly.”
“Getting impatient already?” Ryan chuckled smugly. “Doris, the fun of the game is in playing it slow. Ending it too soon would be boring. Just wait for further notice”
Failing to secure a meeting with Ryan, Doris couldn’t imagine what kind of storm her father might stir up.
After work, as expected, she saw Jimmy waiting for her at the door.
“Dad, Ryan told me to wait for his instructions,” Doris said, trying to pacify him. “He probably won’t come after you guys until I meet with him first.
“But Rupert’s unemployed at home. He can’t wait. You have to make Ryan reinstate him at Watson Group.” Jimmy demanded.
Afraid Jimmy might create a scene, Doris tried her best to soothe him. “Dad, think of it as Rupert taking a short break at home, alright? I’ll figure out a way to see Ryan.”
“Resting at home? Who’s going to pay him while he’s resting? Without a salary, what’s he going to live on? You want him to starve at home?” Jimmy’s thoughts revolved solely around his son.
“Fine. I’ll transfer him some money to get by for a few days, okay?” Doris replied, barely containing her frustration.
“How much?” said Jimmy.
“1 thousand dollars,” Doris said.
“That’s not enough. At least 2 thousand dollars. If that runs out, you’ll need to send more.” Jimmy pressed her.
Doris was about to lose her temper. She wasn’t going to let her father control her entirely, or she’d suffer endlessly in the future.
She began. “Dad, don’t push it. I work hard for my money. Do you think you can just ask for any amount, and I have to give it? That’s not happening. Giving him 1 thousand dollars is already more than generous.
“If you keep this up, I might as well quit this job and find another one. As long as I’m alive, I can earn my own money. Unlike your loser son, who can’t survive without Watson Group.”
Doris was ready to burn bridges if necessary. She wasn’t afraid.
