Chapter 131

SCOTT

I received a series of texts from my slaves at around four PM. I suspected I knew the contents, so didn't bother looking now while others were around. Thornhill's house was coming along nicely. He was back in town, coming for the bonding ceremony next week, staying with Brianna and I was showing him the progress on the house.

"Looks good so far, Scott. I like it," Bill said.

"Of course, most of the enhancements I designed for your house won't be going in until we do the final trim, but I'm happy. Everyone is getting along together. Mixed crews like this don't always work out, but Sam gave me the names of some good contractors, and they all had good subs they worked with. We're actually ahead of where I thought I'd be at this point. Which is good, because of the time I'm taking off this week. I'm going to send my crew home from Wednesday to Monday, give them time to be with their families."
