Hutter was aware of what Steven had done, but he wasn't really that angry.
After all the gifts were accepted, the death of a few agents was a trivial matter, and he understood that Steven couldn't resist Achilles's temptation.
"Hutter, I don't want to be involved in these matters anymore. These people are crueler than us. I can take the injuries, but now I just want to go back to my hometown and rest properly,"
The pain affecting one of their own is a universal human emotion; watching Steven, with tears and snot streaming, Hutter sighed.
"When you're feeling better, I'll arrange for you to go back to Missouri. I'll do my best to take care of things for you in California, brother. You have to understand that I'm also in a difficult position,"
Hutter and Steven were not real brothers, but they did have some mutual benefits. As a high-level official in Forbes, it wasn't difficult for Hutter to make a few minor adjustments—especially since Steven was injured in the line of duty.
