Fox was lost in thought trying to figure out what he was going to do. I can't let them hurt Theresa, but I can't lose her either. I love her. Fox paced around. Damn, what am I going to do?
Ring Ring. Fox's cell phone rang. "Hello." He answered.
"Hey, Handsome, guess who?"
"Theresa." Fox smiled.
"Yup, aren't you a smart cookie?" Theresa giggled. "So, what did Julian and Alistair want to speak to you about?"
Fox paused. "Uh-"
"Fox? What is it? What's wrong?"
"Nothing's wrong." Fox lied. "As usual, they're getting on my case about nothing."
"Oh." Theresa said. "You poor thing."
"Yeah-poor me."
"Well, I thought that once you're done, you could come over."
"That sounds great."
"All right then, I'll see you in a bit."
"Okay. Bye Theresa."
"Bye, Fox. I love you."
"I love you too." Fox answered back before he hung up. I love you so much Theresa. I don't want to lose you, but there's no telling what my father and grandfather could do to you.

This is perfect. Alistair thought to himself. Fox "loves" Theresa and he doesn't want her to get hurt, so he'll accept the proposal and Theresa will be devastated. My plan to destroy that girl and her family will finally work this time.

Julian walked back into the room. "Where's Fox?" Audrey immediately asked.
"He's thinking." Julian answered. And he better make the right decision or else his lovely girlfriend will pay.
"Thinking? What's there to think about?" Audrey said. "The arrangement is perfect."
"Well he doesn't seem to think so." Julian answered.
"Hmph." Audrey said. It's that Theresa. That's what it is.
"He'll come around." Alistair said. "Give him some time."
Fox walked back into the room. "Father, I've made a decision."
"And- you're decision would be?"
"I'm not going to marry Audrey."
