“I am sorry but your words are not enough a.s.surance when it comes to the Duskborn family, I would be a fool if I were not to cultivate this amount of cautiousness when it came to them. I look forward to working with you comrade but that is impossible if the Duskborn family were to be involved directly or indirectly,” Sansa’s father decisively made it clear to Ellen’s parents that if their buy-in money were to come from the Duskborn family then they can forget about the verbal agreement they had between them.

Sansa’s father has spent a decade building his firm into what it was now, he even had to sacrifice a part of his daughter’s childhood for it. Therefore he was very cautious and decisive when it came to decisions regarding his firm and was not willing to compromise even if it was for his comrades.

“Since, you find our word not enough as an a.s.surance how about this,” saying that Ellen’s mother forwarded a doc.u.ment to Sansa’s father.

The doc.u.ment that Ellen’s mother forwarded to Sansa’s father was a declaration with the world’s will as witness written by the Fifth Elder of the Duskborn family, declaring that the money he gave to his nephew was compensation from the Duskborn family to his nephew for his decades of selfless service to the family and they did accept anything in return.

Going through the doc.u.ment, Sansa’s father was finally a.s.sured that the Duskborn family will not use this money as a reason to stir up trouble for his firm or make a claim in the partners.h.i.+p. Bring in a new partner in any new business was a big deal, the only reason Sansa’s father was willing to let Ellen’s father become a partner was that with his presence and expertise the firm would grow to new heights and would set a precedent in the market for their compet.i.tors to overcome.

Sansa’s father would never agree to anybody else becoming a partner or let them try to buy their way in as a partner, for example, the Duskborn family as they would not make any contribution to the firm or its development and would only add to its chaos such as internal strife. Whereas that was not the case for Ellen’s father, whose skill set and reputation would soar the firm to new heights never before imagined.

“So, when should we be expecting to be hearing from you?” Ellen’s mother asked as once again an indifference filled her expression. But under that indifference hid her turbulent heart and mind, the reason for this was the doc.u.ment of the declaration signed by the fifth elder which she forwarded to Sansa’s father.

When Sansa’s father decisively withdrew the verbal agreement between them, Ellen’s mother suddenly received a message from the Fifth Elder reading, ‘hope this speeds up the process.’ with a file attached to it, the doc.u.ment of declaration signed by the fifth elder.

Receiving this message Ellen’s mother felt a chill on her back realizing that this whole time the fifth Elder was listening in on their conversation. The unbelievable thing was that both her husband nor his commander discover the Fifth Elder eavesdropping on them. Ellen’s mother did not show the scare given to her by the means of the Fifth Elder and calmly carried out the exchange.

Fifth Elder did not mind signing this declaration if it were to lessen Sansa’s father’s vigilance toward the motive of the Duskborn family in helping his nephew become a partner in Sansa’s father’s firm. Fifth Elder was eyeing long-term gains so he did not hesitate to make some small losses for greater returns in the future. Ironically, losing money was the foundation of building wealth. This was the truth known to professional investors.

“Two days or a week, I can’t make any promises,” Sansa’s father answered Ellen’s mother.

“A week? Isn’t that too long?” Ellen’s mother blurted in surprise as she wanted to complete the first step of her plan as soon as possible.

“This a very short notice. It takes time to gather all the partners and explain to them how the presence of your husband as our partner will affect the future growth of the firm and persuade the majority of partners to vote in favor of the agenda, that is let your husband join us as a partner. Not to mention it will take me a while to draw up the required paperwork, so please try and understand if there is a delay,” Sansa’s father explained to the couple that though he was the founder of the firm, he did not hold the complete decision making power in the firm. So what they discussed here was still not set in stone. And considering the reputation of the Duskborn family, most of the partners would not favor this decision. Persuading them otherwise would take a while but considering the prospects of Ellen’s father joining them, Sansa’s father was confident that he could get the majority of the partners to vote in their favor.

“We understand commander, this may not be the appropriate time but thank you for all that you are doing for our little family of three,” Ellen’s mother wholeheartedly thanked Sansa’s father. Yes, she had ulterior motives for the man and his company, but that doesn’t mean that she cannot take a time off from hatching her nefarious plans and genuinely thank the man for making it all possible.

“Don’t mention it, I benefit from it too,” Sansa’s father said humbly.

“Commander, please don’t be humble, if not for you talking me out of it I would have already applied to go back to that h.e.l.l hole. Thank you, thank you for everything,” Ellen’s father thanked Sansa’s father for persuading him otherwise when he asked permission to return to his old post in the army, right back to the h.e.l.lhole they were lucky enough to escape.
