ESTRELLA'S POV Joseph shifts in his seat. I snatch a paper from Darla's front and read through it. “You want to fire him even when he owns more than 70 percent of this corporation's shares, he practically owns this company, but you think you can fire him?“ “I don't appreciate that tone, young lady.“ He stands too. “I don't know where my nephew picked you up from, but this isn't how you speak in decent company. Rain, you didn't inform her of how things are done?“ “Don't bring him into this, old man.“ I snap at him. “I don't appreciate your tone either, but here we are.“ “Let's all get back to the matter at hand.“ Rain cuts in, and I sit back down in my chair. Rain takes a stand beside me, and I feel better about it. “Let's get on with the meeting. We all have other places to get to.“
