The next morning, as lan heard Beck directing the chefs in the kitchen to whip up a hearty stew for Maja, his patience finally snapped.
He trudged back to the bedroom, intent on bending Maja's ear.
"Beck's completely zeroed in on us now, but he needs to have his own life, you know? Look, your brother at least has syoung gal by his side, but Beck's all alone. Must be lonely. I say we get Tyler to hook him up. The guy knows plenty of women." Maja, halfway between dreams and waking, barely registered the conversation but mumbled an agreement.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Do whatever you think is best." With that, she drifted back to sleep.
lan wasted no tand called Tyler, asking him to introduce Beck to swomen.
Tyler was a notorious playboy, never short on scandal or a party to attend.
He agreed without hesitation.
"So, you want Beck to stop bugging you at Greenfield Gardens, huh? Say no more, buddy. I got this. You have no idea how bored I've been lately. Tried to grab a drink with Fitch, but the guy won't even lookin the eye. He's always off to God knows where at night, and I can never catch him. Beck's a good sport, though, our kind of people. I'll flip through my contacts and see if I can find a match for him." lan breathed a sigh of relief. Tyler might love stirring the pot, but he always cthrough on his promises.
Descending the stairs, lan spotted Beck lounging on the couch, engrossed in a video game. The living room TV had been co-opted for his gaming sessions, and he sometimes roped Maja into playing with him. Just the other day, Maja had ignored lan altogether in favor of gaming with Beck.
Fortunately, now that Maja was pregnant, she limited herself to half-hour sessions, but she'd still spend hours discussing strategies and hidden levels with Beck. During those discussions, lan might as well have been invisible.
lan was skilled at many things, but gaming wasn't one of them.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe had hardly any experience with electronics growing up, so he was no good at uncovering the secrets hidden within the games. This only made Beck more smug, and lan increasingly irked.
Upon seeing lan descend, Beck couldn't resist a jab.
"lan, still lazing around at this hour? Aren't you supposed to be at the office?" Beck had been born with a silver spoon, rarely dabbling in the family business. The Sanders family affairs had always been Dylan's burden.
When Dylan had relinquished his shares and was supposedly ousted from the Sanders clan, he vowed to make his own way.
But as events unfolded, Dylan still remotely steered the family empire, settling for a modest monthly salary, a thankless task if there ever was one. Yet he never complained. Which meant that Beck, the pampered scion, had never really run the company, spending his days indulging in leisure and pleasure. Nobody could beat him at gaming.
vellan felt a lump in his throat, watching Beck leisurely explore another secret level, probably. planning to discuss it with Maja later. His lips pressed into a thin line. "I'm heading to the office now." Beck casually waved the gcontroller, his annoyance as palpable to lan as lan's was to Abner.
"Is that so? Too bad. I just figured out a new hidden level. Was about to share it with Maja. Oh, and about the baby's name, Dad said there's no rush Haven't you been to North America yet?" lan's eyes narrowed, a sense of crisis flaring within him.
His gut told him Beck had definitely been badmouthing him to Augus.
