Derek had just fallen asleep after working all night when an unexpected visitor decided to wake him up.
Derek forced himself out of bed, groaning in frustration, and walked sleepily past the living hall to open the door.
"Good morning, Derek."
Derek's eyes widened when he saw Adrian standing at his door, staring at him coldly.

"Could you please explain this to me?" Adrian asked, sitting across Derek on the couch. He handed the envelope to Derek and tapped on it.
"This? Why did you send this to Grandpa instead of me?
Derek gulped, sneaking a look at Adrian's deadpan expression, and looked down.
"Did you realize how your one stupid move cost Grandpa's life? Cassandra fled quickly as a result of your one bad decision!" Adrian raised his voice this time, unable to keep his cool in the face of Derek's silence.
Adrian hired Derek to work for him, but he decided to make decisions on his behalf, which is unacceptable.
