CHAPTER 2:

"WHY THE HELL AREN'T YOU IN AUSTRAILIA?"

Chuck got out of his limo in front of Bass Industries, on his way to a meeting with one of the board members. He walked up the steps and into the lobby when he accidentally bumped into someone. "Oh, I'm sorry I didn't see you."

"Thats ok." The man looked up. It was Jack.

"Jack."

"Oh, hello Chuck!" Jack said, smiling from ear to ear.

"Why the hell aren't you in Austrailia?"

"The board members needed to discuss some things in person. And don't worry," Jack raised his hands up, "I'm not after Bass Industries anymore. It's all yours. I've found something more, shall we say, valuable to go after."

"That being?" Chuck asked. What could be more valuable to Jack than Bass Industries?

"Nothing you need to concern yourself with. Well, it was nice catching up, but i best be off." Jack then walked past Chuck, out the door, into a waiting limo, and drove off.

Chuck was half tempted to follow him, then maybe he'd discover what was so valuable that Jack would (or at least claim to) give up fighting for Bass Industries. But instead, Chuck shrugged it off and headed for his meeting.
