The steak dinner was exquisite, and the company was even better. Julian sat across from Tris, his eyes locked onto hers as they chatted and laughed. The round table allowed them to face each other directly, and Tris couldn't help but feel a little self-conscious under Julian's intense gaze.Ed, who was sitting to the side, couldn't resist teasing Julian about his obvious infatuation with Tris. "Julian, you can't take your eyes off my daughter, can you?" he asked, chuckling.Julian's face turned bright red as he looked away, trying to compose himself. Tris, on the other hand, just giggled and looked down at her plate, her cheeks flushing with embarrassment."I'm sorry, Ed," Julian said, trying to laugh it off. "I just can't help it. Anna is... captivating."Tris's eyes met Julian's, and she felt a spark of electricity run through her body. She quickly looked away, trying to play it cool.Ed smiled and nodded, his eyes twinkling with amusement. "I think it's nice to see you two getting

As the evening drew to a close, Julian knew he had to take Tris back to her hotel. He walked her to the lobby, feeling a sense of reluctance wash over him. "I wish I could stay with you longer," he said, taking Tris's hand in his. Tris smiled, her eyes sparkling with understanding. "I know, me too," she said. "But you have to get back to the casino." Julian nodded, feeling a pang of duty. He knew he had responsibilities to attend to, but he couldn't help feeling a sense of disappointment. As they stood in the lobby, Julian pulled Tris close, his lips brushing against hers in a soft, gentle kiss. "I'll see you soon," he whispered, his breath tickling her ear. Tris nodded, her eyes shining with happiness. "I'll be waiting," she said. With one final glance, Julian turned and walked away, leaving Tris standing alone in the lobby. She watched him go, feeling a sense of longing wash over her. But as she turned to make her way back to her room, Tris couldn't help but feel a sense of

Chris walked out of the room, feeling defeated and demoralized. He had been so sure that he was going to get the job, but now it seemed like he had been rejected once again.As he walked out of the building, Chris couldn't help but feel like he was a failure. He had been searching for a job for months, and he had yet to find anything.Meanwhile, back in the room, Ronald picked up the phone and dialed a number. "Hey, it's me," he said, his voice low and serious. "I just finished interviewing Chris. I'm not going to hire him."There was a pause on the other end of the line, and then Ronald continued. "I know, I know. He's got a lot of potential, but I just don't think he's the right fit for this company."Ronald listened for a moment, and then he nodded. "Yeah, I agree. We can't take any risks right now. We need someone who is reliable and trustworthy."With that, Ronald hung up the phone and stood up. He walked over to the window and looked out, his expression serious.A few moments la

Tris was washing her hands in the bathroom when she heard the door swing open behind her. She turned to see Anne storming in, her face twisted with anger."You think you're so smart, don't you?" Anne spat, her voice venomous. "You think you can just humiliate me in front of my family and get away with it?"Tris turned off the faucet and dried her hands calmly, her expression serene. "I'm not trying to humiliate you, Anne. I'm just telling the truth."Anne's eyes flashed with anger, and she took a step closer to Tris. "You're just jealous," she sneered. "You're jealous that Chris chose me over you."Tris raised an eyebrow, her expression unchanging. "Jealous? Of you? Don't be ridiculous, Anne."Anne's face turned red with rage, and she took another step closer to Tris. "You think you're so much better than me, don't you?" she spat. "You think you're so rich and powerful, but you're just a pathetic little girl who can't even keep a boyfriend."Tris's expression didn't change, but her vo

The day of Ed's funeral arrived, and Tris was surprised to see a sea of faces gathered to pay their respects. She had always thought that her father was a cold and arrogant man, and that no one would show up to his funeral.But as she looked around, she saw that she was wrong. There were hundreds of people there, all of whom seemed to have been touched by Ed's life in some way. Tris didn't recognize a single face, but it was clear that her father had made a profound impact on the lives of those around him.Tris felt a lump form in her throat as she gazed out at the crowd. She had been so blind to her father's true nature, and now it was too late to make amends.Julian, sensing her distress, wrapped his arm around her shoulders and pulled her close. "I'm here for you, Anna," he whispered, his voice trembling with emotion. "I'll never leave your side."Tris felt a wave of gratitude wash over her, and she leaned into Julian's embrace. She was so glad that he was there to support her thro
