As of now, I'm just an Intern at Aldridge Global. How does your investment in Aldridge Global benefitexactly?" "You still own a small share in S Corporation, which is linked to Aldridge Global. If Aldridge Global turns a higher profit, so does S Corporation, and you get a larger dividend." James' logic was inefutable.
Indeed, to the outside world, she, the once affluent Miss Russell in dire need of funds to settle debts, could hardly sustain her former lavish lifestyle with the meager dividends from S Corporation.

As she approached him, she added, "But on one condition "Nit" "I only accompany you for today, and we must maintain a respectful distance." Sophie took a step back to illustrate her point, "This step represents that distance." "Agreed." James accepted without hesitation, then asked, "Any other requirements? Feel free to voice them." ...Thats all for now." Sophie, finding James' straightforwardness refreshing, diverted her gaze and began walking towards the amusement park, A rare, faint smile graced James' face before they proceeded into the park, one after the other.
Sophie remembered visiting the park a few times as a child with her parents. After their death, she never set foot in one again.
"You can choose any ride; no need to queue," "It's not about queuing. There's nobody else here." James had rented out the entire amusement park. At this rate, they could cover every attraction in less than two hours.
A small smile appeared on Sophie's face. “So, I can choose any ride?" "Yes." "Then, I choose that one" Sophie pointed towards the towering roller coaster nearby.
Without a second thought, James agreed, "Sure." Sophie was taken aback To her knowledge, James' only weakness was his fear of heights, and yet, he was about to ride the roller coaster? James showed no signs of backing down or regret.

"Mr. Burke, think this through, it's really high.” "As long as it's something you want to do, I'm in.” Sophie fell silent
The roller coaster soon started, and Sophie glanced at James, who m usually maintained a stoic facade. Now, his pale, clenched hands betrayed his anxiety Sophie closed her eyes, and quickly, the ride completed its circuit.
She thought this would make James give up on spending this tedious birthday with her, but instead, he simply said upon disembarking. "Pick the next one you'd like to try." If the roller coaster didn't faze him, what else could? Sophie decided to let loose.
Okay, since I'm getting paid to play, I might as well enjoy it *Then, let's go for that one."
Sophia pointed towards the log flride, which was not too far away.
