The Inheritance

She sipped her drink, then sighed a bit. He forgot to read the paper. She shook her head, then sat back down, crossing her legs. She didn't even know why she was there. She opened up her book, pulling out a letter and reading it. "Uhm... Excuse me... I got this letter and... It says I'm a choice of some sort?" She looked at the lawyers.

(OoC: Something to add to make my character more active. n.n)
 
I look over at Trisha oh yes it would be just like the senoir Mr. King to give Andrew pre-chosen options.

"It would seem your uncle has had some females in mind at the time of his death, although how many i am unsure of, I as well was one of them although I do not take kindly to match making"
 
Andrew was very nearly tempted to pinch himself,this whole situation was getting stranger as it went on."That sounds like Uncle Richard" he sighed before smiling at both ladies,"I guess you both are to spend time here with me then" he suggested finshing off his brandy and standing up and moving away from the table walking to a nearby window and glancing out at his estate.
 
Trisha watched Andrew, then looked at Vanessa. She'd probally have a better chance with him, even if she wasn't interested. She put the letter away, then tapped her foot nervously on the floor.
 
Looking at Peter "Um perhaps we should take our leave and see if we can locate anymore of the women who have recieved these letters, just to verify them."

Waiting for a response I start to tap my foot and then stop the unconscience action bothering me, I never get nervous nor impatient, this whole thing was just so weird.

"As for us spending time together Mr. King I am sure we well however I beleive most of it well be spent in the office."
 
"sounds good Vanessa." as I open the door for her, and head out towards our car.

The summer heat beat down on us hard, as i put on a pair of sunglasses. Our cars were parked at the base of the driveway, a long walk off. Why did these rich people always have to build such long dirveways?

"strangest thing, eh? can you imagine, being forced to fuck around, looking for a match?"
 
I look at Peter and Smile "oh the life styles of the rich and famous, i am just glad I am not one of them" then I giggle thinking of what Mr.King was in for.

"I am so glad I am not in his shoes."
 
Peter laughed at her remark. "very true indeed."

He checked his watch, they had finished a couple hours ahead of time, and weren't due back at the office for quite some time.

"looks like we finshed early," he noted, pointing to his watch. "it would be a shame to return to the office already, after all, we ARE being paid on this time. Wanna grab a drink before we head back?
 
Trisha slowly stood up, then walked over to Andrew, standing a few feet away from him, smiling "Well, I suppose I should go home and get my things then..." She murmured, looking out the window. "Heh... This is going to feel like The Bacholer if there are more women coming..."
 
Andrew watched as his lawyers left in no dobut they would be back and possibly with a few more women that Uncle Richard had selected for him.Turning round he smiled at Trisha,"if you want to go back to your house I understand Trisha don't let me trouble you" he offered hoping that the young lady wouldn't feel obligated to him.
 
She shook her head, then touched his shoulder gently. "It's fine... Who knows, it might be fun!" She giggled, then pushed a strand of hair from her face. "Well... I'll be back later with my things."

"sure that sounds great where would you like to meet?"

I walk towards my car and stop waiting for his answer.
 
"meet me at the O'Hannigan's. I'll see you there." With that, Peter got into his car, and pulled out of the driveway, headed down mainstreet to the bar.
 
I jump in my mustang and pull out of the drive heading down town, a drink is what i really need that and a good laugh.
 
Andrew smiled as he watched Trisha leave and looked foward to her return.He left the small room and headed up to what was his Uncle's bedroom,opening the door he stared ahead at the large double bed and pictured his future.

Andrew shut the door and head down stairs to the living room,"considering all the affirs and sexual conquests he could boast its a bit rich Uncle Rich wants me to marry" he muttered.Andrew knew his Uncle had a wild and untamed libdo the stories he himself had heard would turn even make porn stars blush and romance writers weep.
 
IPeterarrive early, and enter the bar. The musty smell and tacky decorations signified the trappings of a local pub. Recognizing Joe, the bartender, i order my usual. Scotch neat. Vanessa had still to arrive, so I order a dirty martini for her. Sipping my drink, I look at the room, which was sparsely populated at best. Then, i laugh to myself, as i check the clocki.

"what can you expect at 1:00 in the afternoon..." i thought.
 
Trisha came back a few hours later, with a large suitcase and few duffle bags. She looked around, then slowly made her way up the stairs, looking for an empty room. She sat her things down, then looked around the room, sitting on the bed. She sat there for a moment, before getting up and leaving the room, taking a tour around the house.
 
Pulling my car up to the curb I see Peter's is alread here. I lock my door and head into the pub.

"Hey, I see you ordered me a drink, um how did you know I loved matini's?"

Andrew saw Trisha walking round the house and went out to meet her,"good to have you back Trisha" he spoke softly before joing her on her tour round the estate.

"So where are you from Trisha have a job" he asked as they left the house and headed out to the old stables his uncle ran for years and Andrew himsrelf had spent time in his youth.

"Took a lucky stab in the dark. Cheers...this drink's on me. Congratulations on your first case. You've done great Vanessa." In truth, Peter had asked the bartender what Vanessa usually ordered, and asked him to make that. Secretly, he also requested that the bartender make it extra strong, while masking it. Peter remembered from office parties how crazy Vanessa got when drunk. This could get interesting.
 
I take my dirnk "Um cheers" I take a sip of the martini letting it burn a trail down the back of my throat,

"Um just what I needed."
 
They continue their drinks for about an hour, having 3..4..then finally 5 rounds. Peter, being a man who prided himself on his tolerance, was beginning to feel the effects.

"ohh man Vanessa..i think I had a little too much there." he said, cheeks red and with a big smile. "how you feelin?"
 
"um what me, I an a trooper, i could always knock them back with the best of them, you know University parties and all that."

I smile at him thinking it is kind early to have had this many drinks but oh well I was not going back to the office today, not in this shape at any rate.

Trisha smiled at Andrew, holding her hands behind her back. "I've lived here all my life, just moved to different houses over time..." She said, looking around.
 
Andrew nodded and smiled as he listened to Trisha,they walked over to the old stables were and could see some hay laying inside.

"I guess uncle Richard was planning to get some horses again" Andrew said softly,he looked at Trisha and smiled notcing how the sun beeming down only heightened her beauty.
