Problems plague the lives of great men, perhaps because they are not as great as you would think. Face it, any man who's become exceptionally wealthy probably didn't get there without crossing some lines. What keeps them on top of the world is no different than anyone else. How they respond to their challenges defines their continued success.

James Henry Ellsworth was such a man that he knew he couldn't do it all alone. Once scorned by a woman, he would never be that great man with an even better woman behind him. For James, it evolved into a matter of trust. He could no longer trust women. Not the human ones, anyway.

James invested heavily in a robotics company. Eventually, he took over the company and rebranded it as J.H.E. Robotics. J.H.E. Robotics could provide the solutions for all that ailed 'man' kind.

When it first came to him, the idea for the specialty line of robots seemed rather absurd. The perfect companion robots for the busy industrialist, he was told. This specialty line could do it all, and as the C.E.O of J.H.E., James could have one programmed for any level of intercompany work he needed.

"I'll bring it back," she promised.

As she rushed out, he smiled wickedly.
