A similar figure in a white shirt was standing not far away. Hayden took a relief when he turned around. It’s Franklin.

He walked up to Hayden before Tomas tried to introduce him to Hayden.

“It’s been a while, my future sister-in-law.”

Hayden scowled. “What are you doing here?”

She didn’t try to conceal her loathing in her voice.

Franklin stood the golf club on the ground and used it to prop himself, inclining slightly forward. “You seem to be unhappy to see me here, my future sister-in-law. You didn’t tell her, Tomas?”

Hayden looked at Tomas in confusion.

Tomas frowned. “I thought Miss Hayden knew. Mr. Beckham set this collaboration up. Mean no offense, our company is way out of your league. We wouldn’t have agreed if it’s not for Mr. Beckham.”

Hayden paused a moment. “You set this up?”

“Surprised?”

Franklin put on a sly smile. “We are going to be family now. And it is only natural that family help each other. Take this as an apology for what I have done.”

Only a retard would believe Franklin.

“Don’t be patronizing. You act like you have done me a huge favor. But where is the contract, huh? You are not trying to play your old trick and use this contract to induce me to do something, are you?”

“I am, indeed. But you won’t lose anything.”

He held up the club with two hands and examined it. “All I want is somebody to hit a few balls with. We’ll sign the contract if you goal with less strikes.”

Frowning, Hayden looked at him with suspicion. “Really?”
