Henry rolled his eyes. "I can tell that you are not used to these types of venues. It's a surprise. I think you'll like it when you get a better view." After they had walked some distance they had come upon the front entrance of the huge building. Ellie craned her eyes up at the blinding sunlight to see the large sign on top before Henry jerked her head down to see the engraved glass sign on the double doors: Big Machine Roads Established in 1983.

"This is a subsidiary of Wong Industries." Henry explained as he put his company keycard against the reader.  The red light quickly beeped to green. There was a little melody that played as the security guard ran towards them and quickly clicked his boots together before saluting at Henry with a grim look on his face.  "You can resume your duties of checking the perimeter. I am just here for my reserved activities." As the guard resumed his vigil, Henry pulled Ellie inside to the cool air conditioned reception area where he continued to explain.  "This is owned actually by the Wong Family Trust, jointly by the whole family, but as I am the majority shareholder, I get preference over my relatives. The only other people who really comes here is Nadius and my young male cousins.  But we have several stock cars that we have available for test driving. Part of the technology division of our company aims to study different models of cars so we can offer the very best to our consumers when we launch our own line. This is a top secret lab to flush out the perfect sports car design.  There is a floor below us where nobody is allowed to go."

Henry stopped talking when a receptionist came to greet them.  She was wearing a very skin tight dress with the company logo that showed off her long legs and figure.  The woman clung to Henry's side as she fluttered her enormous fake eyelashes and dug her fluorescent pointed fingers into him.  Ellie cleared her throat and the woman pursed her lips as Henry shook her off as he wrenched a key card from her hand. He guided Ellie to the inner sanctum while the receptionist leered at them over a copy of Sports Illustrated.  Ellie was about to say something when Henry pulled her through to the glass balcony which overlooked a gigantic car showroom with rare cars. The showroom was the size of a stadium. "Big Machine Roads was actually owned by a country singer who sold the company to my father over a game of cards.  My father always told my mother that it was the only time he had ever gambled, but that's not true. My dad actually brought me here all the time after school because I loved it so much. When I turned sixteen he just told me to drive myself whenever I wanted to come take a look at the new models."
