Charles: Well, a good point. I mean, it would be sad to let a lady wait for you while you will be in the West, so it wouldn't affect the business.
He turned toward his his step-daughter, enthusiasm.
Charles: You heard that Gwen? Everything seem perfect for achieve this project.
She tried to smile while answering.
Gwen: Yes sir. Your project would grow up well with Mr. Standish at the lead position.
She didn't really believe what she said, but she couldn't contradict him. All the evening together, she fear that Ezra would try to enter much more in her father favor - who know what was the plan of this stranger? She should find something and quick!
Gwen: Sir?
Charles: Yes Gwen?
Gwen: May come with you at the restaurant? I really would like to heard mote about Mr. Standish travels that he talked previously during the meeting. If he left for Colorado Springs soon, it could be the last time to heard his stories?
She glanced to Ezra with a victorious smile - she wouldn't let him alone with her father more.
Charles: If that not bother Mr. Standish, of course you can.

The woman squint toward Ezra while walking toward for not talk loudly, but alwayson the defensive. Gwen: I will watch you Mr. Standish. I will not let someone ruins all my father works for his own benefit. I saw enought men like you turning arouns my father in my life for know that half of your speech are only for gain favor.  She try with difficulty to not shown her worries - she saw her father lost two times all his work and now with his fragile health, she fear the worse if something should happen.
