"She really said that?" Tom asked, howling with laughter as Harry recounted the lie Lucinda had told him.

"She is really not what I expected. I had to let her off the hook just because of you though, or maybe it was because she looked pretty nervous when I introduced myself to her." Harry said with an easy shrug.

"Thanks. Hope she settled in well?" Tom asked curiously after his laughter settled down.

"She did."

"Good. So after you left earlier, I was thinking." Tom said with a look on his face that had Harry shaking his head.

"Not good. I'm sure whatever you want to say isn't good." Harry said making Tom chuckle.

"Well, I need a job and a house," Tom said making Harry frown.

"You have a mansion, and you don't just have a job, but you own the most successful company in the country." Harry reminded him.

"Sure. Find out where Lucy lives, and see if you can get me an apartment very close to her..."

"What?" Harry asked in disbelief.

"Let's just say I'm bored. I want to get to know her and be friends with her without her knowing about this aspect of my life."

"What if she is in a relationship?" Harry asked skeptically.

"That should be part of me getting to know her. And about the job... I want to be her personal driver. So that means you have to give her an official car. Tell her it comes with her promotion package." Tom said making Harry's mouth drop in disbelief.

"There is absolutely no way I'm letting you do this! You're completely out of your mind!" Harry exclaimed.

"Maybe. Just humor this crazy friend of yours and do as you're told." Tom said with a grin.

"What do you hope to accomplish by being her driver?" Harry asked in confusion.

"That's also a part of me getting to know her. So make it happen before the end of the day." Tom said with a smile, pleased with himself for coming up with such a brilliant plan.

"I really think this is crazy. Completely crazy.!"

"I think so too. And that's more reason I want to do something completely crazy." Tom said with a smile as he thought of Lucy. She not only intrigued him but also aroused his curiosity. He was willing to do as much crazy things as he could just to get to know her.

"I'll just get to it then." Harry said as he headed for the door, and then stopped when he remembered something, "That reminds me, your mother called earlier, she asked that you return her call immediately you get the message." Harry said making Tom groan.

"We could just pretend like I haven't received the message yet, right?" Tom asked Harry who shook his head.

"No, we can't. Every single time I've tried to lie to her in the past, she caught me. So I'm just going to tell her the truth if she calls again and asks why you haven't returned her call." Harry warned making Tom shake his head.

"Coward. Just leave, I'll call her now. Did she give you any hint as to why she wants me to call her?" Tom remembered to ask.

"She only asked about your girlfriend and if things are going smoothly..."

"And what did you say?" Tom interrupted before Harry could finish.

"I told her everything was fine."

"Good. I'll return her call right away." Tom said and waited until Harry had left before picking up his phone.

"I learned you had a hooker over last night. Is that how I brought you up? Don't tell me your wealth is beginning to get into your head." Sixty years old Evelyn Hank asked the moment she accepted his call.

"First of all, she's not a hooker, and secondly it's none of your business who I bring into my home or what I do in my home," Tom said in an easy voice.

"So am I to assume the lady you passed the night with is your girlfriend?" Evelyn asked ignoring what he had just said.

"You're free to assume whatever you please. How are you?" Tom asked, changing the subject.

"I'm alright. I read in the papers that you finally bought Oceans airline... Well done son. I'm proud of you." Evelyn said making Tom smile.

"Thanks. How is dad?"

"You should come to see us if you're so concerned about your father." His mother said with a snort.

"I've just been really busy lately. I'll visit you soon. I promise."

"If you say so. What about your siblings? When last did you hear from them? Or you've been too busy to reach out?" She asked making Tom wince guiltily.

"I'll give them a call the moment I hang up," Tom said apologetically.

"You should do that. Heaven knows I miss the lot of you around the house. Everywhere seems so silent without any of you around. It would be good to have grandchildren playing around here." Evelyn said making Tom chuckle since he had been waiting for her to say it as usual.

"I'm sure you'll get plenty of them soon. So you should try to enjoy the silence for the time being. And if you get too bored, you both can travel down here. My house is big enough for you all."

"Yeah, maybe we should do that soon. I'll just talk to your siblings." Evelyn said thoughtfully.

"I have to go now. I love you, mom.." Tom said before hanging up.
