"What's going on here?" Alex asked sternly while meeting the executive's gaze.
Flabbergasted by his words, the executive fired back. "What's going on here?... I should be asking you that, you bastard!... What the hell do you think you are doing here?"
"I do not know what you think of me but I believe it's in your best interest to lower your voice." Calm but threatening, Alex's words served as cold water on the executive's otherwise fiery personality.
"You…you're in our house so you have to play by our rules!"
"You seem to be confused about something. You need my help, I don't need yours."
"..." Gulping instinctively, the executive took a step back.
Silence reigned for a brief moment as he adjusted his suit and cleared his throat before meeting Alex's gaze.
"Now then… Mind explaining what's happening here?" Alex asked again.
