章 12: CHAPTER 12 Meeting at Dreadnaught Law

　　Conor awoke the next morning with a new sense of purpose. Jessica had been his wife for four years, and he had not lived up to his end of that contract. Any hostility Jessica leveled at him had been earned by his own failures and his own lack of care for her need for security and financial stability. It was time to change that.

　　He crept out of the room, but found that Jessica had apparently awoken before him and already left for the family offices. He ate a quick breakfast of dry cereal and then called Mr. Nuri.

　　“Yes, Mr. Bentley?”

　　“Can we have a business meeting? With Mr. Miros if possible?”

　　“I will have a car pick you both up. My office will have a meeting room available within an hour.”

　　Conor was amazed at Mr. Nuri’s efficiency and dedication. He had meant what he said when he had told Conor he could call any time.
