In a beautiful restaurant, a lovely lady in her mid thirties was sitting down on a chair. She checked her wrist watch for the time and from the look of things she was waiting for someone. Her name is Tricia Alexander. Jess Barons sister. The door of the restaurant opened and Jess Baron walked towards his sister.
"Hello sis". Jess called. Tricia Alexander smiled as she stood up and hugged her brother, then they sat down on the chair.
"I know you missed me. How was your vacation?". Jess Baron asked.
" It was fun but let's talk about you. I think you should start considering dad's talk seriously ". Tricia said.
Trish, that no advice. it's a threat. You don't hinge a man's inheritance on marriage. Where have you heard that done before". Jess Baron said in a stern voice.
" While if you had done the right thing dad won't have done so". Tricia replied.
Jess Baron stared at his sister in surprise. "You amaze me Trish. You think dad is right by doing what he did. Thanks for taking sides with him". Jess said in anger.
Tricia not wanting to offend her baby brother said. " Come on, it's not about taking sides darling. I don't need dad to say something before thinking of what is good for you. I know what is good for you".
"How will marriage do me any good. it's that a big deal. Why should marriage qualify me from getting my inheritance" Jess asked with frustration.
"You are no longer a kid, I came out two years before you and am done with child bearing" Tricia replied.
"Well, it doe not mean our life will go the same way. Am doing good managing dad's empire. Why doesn't dad leave it like that". Jess said.
Tricia looked at her brother with love . " It's okay. I care about you a lot. I and my family will soon relocate to another country and I don't want you to be lonely" .Tricia said.
"When I find the right woman that is worth it. I will tell you". Jess said.
"Really, is it the first, third, fifth or the twelfth one". Tricia asked.
" Whatever, what do they have here am hungry". Jess asked as he changed the topic.
"Oh, I didn't know you were hungry". Tricia replied in a sarcastic way as she glared at Jess.
" Waiter, bring the menu". Tricia called as both ordered for their food.
