Lucius: Other: Plans moving forward
Lucius sat laughing, several other businessmen around him at a table in the back of Georgio's. “Gibbons, you are lucky that your wife allowed you back in the house after that!”
The man, Gibbons, was attempting to stop laughing himself. “Oh, I count myself very lucky indeed.” He dabbed at his face with his napkin. “Thank you for lunch, Mr. Malfoy.” The other gentlemen at the table agreed, expressing thanks as well.
Lucius put up a hand. “Not at all. We are all men of business, we must work together. And one should never work on an empty stomach.”
The men left one by one, until only Gibbons remained. “You’re certainly on the right track, Mr. Malfoy,” he said, “These men already respect you. Your name is more and more noticeable, in all the right ways.”
Lucius nodded. “You agree then? You will take the job?”
Gibbons nodded. “Yes, Mr. Malfoy, I will. I will be your campaign manager.”
Lucius smiled. “Thank you, Mr. Gibbons.” He reached out to shake the man’s hand. “I look forward to working with you.”
