"When you say 'responsibility', what is it that you're referring to?" Sherman asked. "I recall explaining everything in vivid detail to you back then, and I left only after I ensured Rita's safety. Why are you now presenting this surveillance footage toand demanding I shoulder sform of responsibility?" He shrugged and stared at Vince, unable to fathom his intentions. "Did you even seek Rita's consent before coming to my place today?" "No, of course not," Vince retorted, a wry smile playing on his lips. "I purposely refrained from doing so because I know she'll try to stop me. I'm sure you're aware of how much damage gossip can inflict upon a young woman.

Though Vince had sensed Sherman's reluctance, he remained steadfast in his mission to get Sherman's approval. If that remained out of grasp, then Vince would happily reach out to Sherman's family, and he believed that Sherman's elders would not stand to see Sherman act that way.

"This isn't about my company's plummeting stocks," Vince countered. "I simply want you to embrace the responsibilities that a man should bear. If this video surfaces, it won't just be our company's stocks that will plummet. In this day and age, integrity and morality are necessary in power. The shareholders will be sorely disappointed if the president of the Parr Group displays such blatantly irresponsible behavior." characteristics of ummet.

Truer words had never been spoken. Sherman knew that Vinge was simply trying to intimidate him.
