answered immediately. “Clear my schedule for the rest of the afternoon and evening. I’ll be out of the office until tomorrow.” He waited for her acknowledgement then placed his laptop case on his desk. He paused then pressed the intercom again. “One more thing, get my cousin Trey on the phone for me.”

    “Send him in,” Trey said as he stood and walked over to the door. He’d cleared his last few appointments when his cousin, J.T., asked to see him as soon as possible.
    It had been at least seven months since Trey had seen J.T. The executive had been on the road for E-Corp for nearly six years straight. In that time he had generated a sizable reputation as a force to be reckoned with and a master of negotiations. Never living in one place for long, he had called New York City his home up until a month ago when Jace had announced his semi-retirement and persuaded him to return to the D.C. area permanently.
    J.T. had decided that it was time to stop living out of a suitcase and settle into the new corporate offices in Northern Virginia. And three weeks ago, he did just that. He leased his apartment in Manhattan and moved into the Ritz Carlton hotel temporarily.
    “Come on in, have a seat,” Trey said after he greeted his older cousin and ushered him into his office. As close as brothers, Trey was delighted to hear that J.T. was returning to the area. Everything Trey had learned to make his business a success he learned from his cousin. And everything he had learned about women, he also learned from his cousin.
    “Welcome back home finally. It’s been what, like six years since you’ve settled down in one place for more than a few months. That’s a long time to be on the road.” He began handing J.T. his beverage of choice—coffee, black.
    “Thanks, it’s good to be back, but I’m sure I’m gonna miss being out on the road.” He absently picked up the latest edition of Barron’s sitting on Trey’s desk and flipped through the pages.
    “I hear you’re staying at the Ritz.”
    J.T. nodded. “For the time being until I find a place, although Tony offered me his place in Alexandra now that he’s living in Philadelphia. But hotels have always seemed more like home to me.”
    “Have you settled in yet?”
    “Pretty much.”
    “How’s Madi and the baby.”
    “I haven’t seen her in a while, not since Raymond and Hope’s wedding reception. But I hear she’s getting big and that she and Tony are still in the soon-to-be-parents stage.” He tossed the magazine down and sipped from his cup.
    Trey shook his head. “Raymond got married. I still can’t believe it.”
    “Tell me about it. Marriage and settling down is the last thing on my mind at this point in my life. I agree with Keni. I need my freedom.”
    Trey nodded his concurrence. “And how is Kennedy these days?”
    “She’s still hiding out in Africa. I spoke with her the other day. She said that she intends to be there indefinitely or at least until Mamma Lou finds a new target.”
    “It’s a good thing Mamma Lou isn’t our grandmother, we’d all be in serious trouble.”
    A moment of silence elapsed as both men thought about their lives, assured that they were happy as bachelors for life.
    “Dennis’s engagement blew me away,” Trey finally added. “How did that happen, I though Mamma Lou was just concentrating on Raymond?”
    “No one saw it coming, least of all Dennis.”
    “Sounds like Mamma Lou is really good,” Trey said. “I gotta give her her props. She’s made some good matches so far,” Trey confessed.
    J.T. arched his eyebrow. “Are you interested in being next?”
    “Me? No way man! I’m way too young for that. I’ve got my whole life ahead of me and I intend to keep it that way. I have no intention of being shackled down ‘til I’m eighty or ninety years old,” Trey said decidedly. “You on the other hand…” he chuckled leaving the statement open.
    “…Have no intention of finding
