Getting The Shaft: The Finale

Ryan Orion finally did it. After weeks of chasing signatures, dodging attitude, and getting worked over by every trailer boy in the park, he’s collected the paperwork that should hand River North full control. At least, that’s what Ryan thinks. Turns out River pulled a fast one. Those signatures didn’t make him the sole owner; they made all the boys co-owners: every last one of them! The park stays theirs, the developer gets played, and Ryan? Well, River sees it as a win-win.

He didn’t just save the park. He gave Ryan a lifetime job. And yeah, they’re still getting that dang pool.

Ryan’s standing there, realizing the deal he worked so hard to close has closed around him instead. River just grins, proud as hell, and lets the moment sink in. After everything Ryan put them through, it’s only fair he shows a little appreciation. Time to thank the man in charge.
