"Um, yeah. Sorry about that." Steadying myself, I look at Tom. "Let's go." However, before I leave, I find myself looking over my shoulder at the man watching me. I've never seen him around before. Turning my head, I focus on the current problem on hand, whose name is Norman. Catching up to him, I grab his shoulder, swinging him around to face me, "Have you lost your mind? Do you think anyone will want us to acquire their company if you behave like that? This isn't a game, Norman! If you want to become Alpha, then you'd better start acting like it instead of like a spoiled brat!" I never speak like this to Norman. I don't have a death wish. But if he doesn't get this merger, I don't get my freedom. "You'd better watch your mouth," he snarls, getting in my face. I don't back down. “
