The Billionaire's Deal

Patrick left his suitcase on his room's center table. And since he didn't have on a full six-piece suit that day, he started taking off his blazer. He undid his necktie and dropped it on the bed. Before bathing, he did the same with his underwear and shirt.

As soon as he emerged from the shower, his phone rang. One towel was wrapped around his body, and another was in his palm. The phone was on the floor, in the white cupboard.

He reached for the cabinet and took out his phone.

"Thank you. Is it so difficult for you to phone me in a day? You've missed twelve calls from me already today." He grumbled.

"Your stupid ass should be glad that someone cares about you." He stated.

"How far along are you now? How are you doing?" He inquired.

"I'm doing OK. Why won't you pick up when I call?

"Now, I'm responding to it. Why are you calling?" Patrick queried.
