" You have any complaints or comments, you direct them to me. If you call and harass Granddad
again, I'll do whatever I can, legally, to revoke that trust fund you've been living off of for the last

"You have no right to—"
"No, you have no right. You never worked a day for this company, any more than you and my
mother worked a day to be parents. Until he's ready to step aside, Eli MacMillan runs this show. And
when he's ready to step aside, I'll run it. Believe me, I won't be as patient as he's been. You cause him
one more moment's grief, and we'll have more than a phone conversation about it."

"No, I know how to hit you where it hurts. I'll see to it all your major credit cards are canceled.
Remember, you're not dealing with an old man now. Don't fuck with me."
He jabbed the off button, considered heaving the phone, then spotted Sophia standing at the edge
of the patio. "
