throughout the
world. I understand the founder has recently passed away." James
kept up on business as most of his clients were the big wheels of
industry and commerce. Even as he recalled it, the name Spencer
rang out in his head.
    "You are quite good, James. I'm impressed
with your business knowledge." Cathleen praised. "The founder was
my father."
    "My condolences, I'm sorry for your loss."
James consoled. This was starting to make some sense now. It hadn’t
been a week since the staunch founder had died.
    "Thank you, I am the sole heir to his estate
and holdings." she explained.
    "I have met royalty and stand humbled."
James said sincerely, he was in the midst of one of the most
powerful people on the planet. At 20 years old or so, she could
collapse economies. He wondered if she was savvy enough to realize
that fact.
    "Once again, you dazzle with words, James."
eyeing him, "Wherever did you get your sense of phrase?"
    "I've studied etiquette for my part-time
profession." James responded.
    "That will be an asset for our future. Now,
back to the company I just purchased." she took a pause to sip her
drink. "Spenco has many assets here in the U.S. and our owners,
managers, and stock holders travel in and out of the city
frequently. Instead of Spenco or its affiliates spending money on
transportation, they could be spending money on its own
transportation company." pausing to let that sink in.
    "So, a traveler of Spenco and its
subsidiaries will, in essence, pay itself to travel." Cathleen
explained.
    This was sheer genius. A company pays
itself, writes it off as a business expense while profiting from
the same money through another company.
    "Spenco would be profiting from a loss that
was written off." James summarized.
    "Yes, and it is perfectly legal." Cathleen
almost giggled, sitting her drink down.
    "So, I fit in where?" James wanted to
know.
    "Some of the clientele that will be
traveling will require special treatment. Between those, my family
and friends, and I, you will be one busy man." she smiled.
    "I don't know how I could help that much,
being part time." James pointed out.
    "Ah, back to the benefits. You will finish
out your degree online for your precious piece of paper. You should
also consider seek more training in defense. I will fund your
education, whatever you decide." leaving him reeling.
    "I'm in." whatever the price to pay, James
decided his future would be better off in the service of this
woman. Besides, if he refused her, his future would be in jeopardy.
She had him either way. With one phone call, she could ruin his
name forever.
    "I'm pleased James. You will find your
decision will be the best one you will ever make." she purred.
    "Am I replacing anyone?" James thought this
blanketed question could mean volumes to him.
    Cathleen grinned, "I've never had such a boy
toy as you." then yelled. "Niles!"
    Niles entered the room and bowed.
    "Take Mr. Farlow on a tour and get him
prepped please." and waved him and James off.
    James was led away and was shown each room
on the ground floor. The elegance of the estate was breathtaking.
From the artwork, antiques, and woodwork, the estate was above
first class. A panel door in the kitchen was opened for him, which
brought up his eye brows. Entering the room, it was apparent that
it was the security for the mansion.
    Monitors lined one wall, computers on
another, and a very large TV on the side wall. The taller of the
two guards manned the control panel. Niles explained the usual tech
while James looked at the monitors. Some were views of the hallways
in the estate including every floor. Another showed an access road
from the rear. An unmarked truck was unloading boxes. Another
monitor showed two more hallways with doors on each side, ending
with a metallic door at the end.
    "Where's the camera for the walkway?" James
wondered out loud. Niles pointed out a walkway towards the tennis
court, explaining that it could be turned in any direction.
    "I was referring
