I did my best to convince Michael to stay home with me, but he insisted that we were both leaving for the party. I hadn't been a fan of parties since Antonio embarrassed me in front of the crowd. And while I knew Michael wouldn't do the same to me, I still wanted to stay home, away from all the drama, and the intoxicating smell of alcohol.

This was an opportunity to build relationships with other CEOs and men in power, and Michael Black was a big opportunist.

"What is it now?" He demanded, willing to hear my condition more than anything.
