"Aceco?" Beowulf tilted his head.
Rhett nodded and was about to speak when Darius cut him off. "This is very much unbelievable, Rhett! You're such a cunning man! I brought up going to Aceco earlier at the meeting as my very much valuable advice and what did you do…"
Rhett shut his eyes briefly and clenched his fists. He should keep it together. He really should.
"You stood up against me." Darius took steps closer to him. "You made me seem like an unreasonable man who wants to put Aceco in danger. But now, in private, you suggest the same thing? You sure are one smart man!"
Rhett looked up at him. "Or maybe I am reasonable enough to want to hold back and not jeopardize someone else's life when we clearly had other choices now."
