"Damn!" Julian spattered as he hung up his phone. He began to dial his father's number.
"What is it now Julian?" Alistair asked in annoyance.
"I'm not the father of Theresa's son."
"Oh? And how do you know this?"
"The DNA results came in and it proves I am not the father."
"Well- damn! Another plan gone down the drain."
"Tell me about it father. We could have seriously used Little Ethan to destroy the Lopez-Fitzgerald's."
"We'll just have to find some other way." Alistair said simply.
After thinking intently Julian said, "I think I know just the thing."
"What?"
"Fox."
"Fox? Your sorry excuse for a son? How can we use that no good-excuse for a Crane?"
"We can use him father. Apparently the word is that Fox is 'in love' with that feisty Theresa." Julian laughed.
Alistair laughed. "Fox, in love? That's the most ridiculous thing I've heard."
"Well, father here's something else- Audrey Wellington is in town because of Fox. I think she is trying to get him for herself."
"Julian- how do you know all of this?"
"Observation- word of mouth, you name it-"
"Well, I think I have just the plan now that you've mentioned this Audrey."
"She comes from a very respectable and insanely rich family as well, father."
"Ah yes, Wellington does strike my memory. Isn't her father Richard Wellington?"
"I believe so."
"Well, it looks like I'm going to be making a call to Richard."
"Why, father?"
"I'll be making a marriage arrangement to serve as a business merger."
"And who's the lucky couple?"
"Fox and Audrey."
Julian and Alistair laughed. "Perfect." Julian smiled.
