“Mr. Holston, you're quite observant," Jason mocked him before the other two said anything.

"You could recognize a thousand-dollar watch? Has your taste in fashion downgraded after getting married?" Percy seized the opportunity and dealt him a mighty blow to get revenge on him for making fun of Nina for not being able to cook.

"That's it? I'd still help you even if you told me this over the phone. No problem. You have my word." Jim agreed immediately without asking about the reasoning behind it.

When the time came, it did not matter whether Percy wanted to take back the shares or let him keep them.
