The Drowning

“We also do corporate security programs.”


“My God, you’re famous and must have a gazillion dollars. What do you want with me? You could have anyone.” Dennis was in shock.


“That’s why I didn’t tell you about the money, it complicates things. I never know if someone wants me for myself. You were genuinely oblivious to who I was and what I owned. I know what you feel for me has nothing to do with money.” Luca sipped his champagne.


Dennis stared at the man he thought he knew. “But you have so much and I have little to offer other than myself.”


“I’m still Luca, the guy who pulled you out of the drink. I love you, remember. The night I met you I was considering selling my company.” Luca sighed. “Don’t let the money change how you feel about me.”


“Wouldn’t selling the company put a lot of people out of work?” Dennis asked, taking a forkful of the torte.
