His decision
Raphael sighed as he sat calmly in his study. In front of him was Henry, who was fidgeting on his seat.
"What do you think about my offer?" He asked calmly looking at Henry.
Henry was silent for a minute.
"I thought you wanted me to work as your gardener?" He asked.
"Yes... That was what I wanted. However what I said was merely to test you. How bad would it be, if my daughter's husband was my gardener. Everyone would then assume that you are a live-in son-in-law. It would be a smear on my daughter's reputation. I wouldn't want that." Raphael said.
"Oh.. I never thought of that. All I wanted was to make it up to her. I knew I hurt her, so I am willing to undergo any punishment to prove my sincerity." Henry said solemnly.
"Do you think I would give my granddaughter to someone who would hurt my granddaughter?" Raphael asked.
Henry looked at him squarely. Of course he wouldn't!
The Stones weren't fools... Their daughter's happiness was their priority.
"I'm not leaving you with any choice. Sylvester will hand down his position as the CEO to you." Raphael informed.
Henry raised his head in shock.
"But you said-"
Raphael smiled at him,
"To be honest, I admired your boldness the first time you visited us. Otherwise, I would have castrated the man who caused my daughter pain." Raphael chuckled as he sipped his cup of coffee calmly.
"Is that so?" Henry was also amused.
It turned out they already had a good impression of him, right from time....
"Of course... You were courageous enough to step into the domain of the Stones. And without fear, you proclaimed your love for the heiress of the Stones. Isn't that courageous?" Raphael laughed.
"Well, I was also nervous." Henry bowed his head.
He had banked on the hope that the Stones wouldn't be heartless enough to throw him out.
And they hadn't...
"Whatever it was.. The fact remains that you were courageous that day. At least, to us you were." Raphael said calmly.
Henry was silent. He was surprised by this sudden offer presented to him.
Becoming the CEO of the Stones Perfume empire wasn't a joke at all!
To say he was awed would be putting it mildly.
"Think about it... We will have this discussion another time... You may leave." Raphael waved his hand dismissively.
Henry stood up respectfully. He bowed and left the study.
After his departure, Raphael had an odd expression on his face. And then, he sighed...
===================
As Henry lay in bed, he sighed for the umpteenth time. He turned restlessly on the bed. His mind was filled with his conversation with his grandfather in-law earlier on.
"What is wrong?" Quinn asked sleepily as she sat up on the bed. Her husband's restless movements continuous sighs had woken her up.
She switched on the lights and looked at his troubled face.
"What is wrong with you?" Quinn asked him again. He looked at her and sighed.
He didn't want to tell her now... He would tell her later, perhaps...
"I'm craving for your body." Henry replied hoarsely.
He was partly saying the truth. He wanted her.
"Really? And why didn't you wake me up?" Quinn chuckled.
"Well... I couldn't bear to disturb your sleep." Henry defended himself.
"You know very well that I have no schedule for tomorrow. I'm literally free. We can have sex the whole night. So, what's with the 'not wanting to disturb my sleep'?" Quinn chuckled.
As she spoke, her hands were already tugging at her nightwear. She threw it on the ground, and helped Henry undress too.
Both of them were now naked, as they looked at themselves with a burning gaze.
Quinn could see the passionate desire in his eyes, and likewise Henry.
She climbed unto his body, and gently lowered her pussy on his hard shaft. They didn't need any foreplay.
In fact, she didn't need anything to turn her on, or make her wet. A look from her dear husband was enough.
She began riding him slowly. She gasped at the feel of him inside her,
'He is still as big as ever.'. She moaned.
Henry grabbed her waist from below as he guided her.
The main reason why he was allowing her ride him, was because he was mentally exhausted.
Quinn on her part indulged in the pleasure she was getting. She swayed her hips and impaled his dick with her pussy.
Henry grunted in pleasure,
"Fuck, Quinn .. That feels so good..."
Quinn felt encouraged, and began moving faster.
..........................
As the both of them lay huddled in the sheets, Henry sighed for the last time.
They had just had a shower after they finished making love.
He had made a decision.... He wouldn't accept the offer.
He wanted to have a status on par with that of the Stones.
Then, and only then would he have the confidence to introduce himself as Quinn's husband.
But at that moment, he was living under the shadow of the Stones.... He felt like a live-in son-in-law.
Accepting to become the CEO of the Stones Perfume empire would only worsen the situation.
Things were already bad as it was.... He didn't want to further complicate matters...
There and then he made a vow...
He was going to become someone powerful than even the Stones themselves!
But for the time being, he was going to stay with his wife and daughter first...
He was going to shower his daughter with the love she missed during childhood...
To hell with whatever perfume empire! As enticing as the offer seemed, he didn't want it.
He laughed lightly. He knew that if his parents were aware that an offer like that was given to him, they would pester him to death.
And then if they knew that he had rejected the offer, they would clutch their heads in anger.
But he wasn't concerned at all...
He had made his decision, and nothing was going to change his mind, at all...
