Chapter 43: Twist?

Kyle had concluded his meeting with Mr. Jones, and, as expected, Jones was eager. He understood what this opportunity meant for him and his family. This reaction was exactly what Kyle had anticipated. Jones trusted him enough not to ask probing questions, but lawyers would undoubtedly be involved to draft the contracts that formalized their agreement.

Kyle stayed a while longer, chatting with Jones. Despite the struggles of his life, Jones always carried a sense of gratitude. He had a way of finding happiness even in difficult circumstances, refusing to waste time complaining about how hard life was. Instead, he made the best of his situation, and Kyle admired that about him.

"Kyle, have you ever thought about getting married?" Jones asked suddenly. Kyle respected Jones for never prying into his personal life or asking how he came into his money. He also admired how Jones had never asked him for a handout, despite struggling.
