Garry leaned back, shaking his head. "Alright, no more joking. I have a meeting, and I don't have time to waste."
Lucian blinked. "Meeting? With who?"
Jimmy raised an eyebrow, setting his drink down.
Garry let out a deep breath. "My future father-in-law, of course."
"F-Father-in-law?!"
Lucian and Jimmy almost fell out of their chairs, their mouths hanging open as they stared at Garry like he'd just spoken in an alien language.
"Wait, what?! When?! Why?! And HOW?!" Lucian asked, utterly baffled. "When did this happen, and why are we only hearing about this NOW?"
Garry scratched the back of his head. "It's a long story."
Jimmy crossed his arms. "Well, keep it short. I'm very interested in hearing this."
Lucian nodded. "Yeah, spill it."
Sitting beside them, Alex watched with mild amusement. "Kids these days are fast," he thought to himself, a bit impressed by Garry's boldness.
