After their initial conversation, excitement hummed beneath the surface as Ethan and Theodore Graves continued discussing the potential sale of Ridge Rovers FC.
A bold thought popped into Ethan's mind. It was half impulse, half strategy. If he would buy this club, he needed to understand more than just the business side.
He needed to feel what this team was about, not from the sidelines but on the pitch itself.
"Theodore," Ethan said, his tone thoughtful, catching the older man's attention. "I have a request."
Theodore lifted his eyebrow, feeling both curious and careful. "What is it, Ethan?"
Ethan grinned, knowing the request was unconventional. "Since we're planning to sit down for formal talks about the club, how about you join me at Nova Tech's opening ceremony next week?"
It was something that David, Jordan, and Jessica had planned. Ethan felt that was needed, too. So he had no problem with that.
