"Just quit your job once this project wraps up." "That's not going to happen." Trey dismissed the idea flatly.
Brian's laugh was chilling. "Well, I could always bring her here right now. You can explain things to her face to face, or she can just read your statement and the evidence." "Brian, you're a monster!" Anger flared in Trey's eyes as he confronted Brian. "Fine. You win," The words were forced through clenched teeth, laden with reluctance.
