"Boss, are you really planning to just take the craftsmen and leave?" Derek asked as the craftsmen were being handed over. He approached Justin , clearly frustrated.
"Then what do you suggest?" Justin replied.
"You know what I mean. Since we're already here, why not wipe them out?"
Justin blinked at Derek's bold remark. Everything was already settled, so why cause more trouble?
"On what grounds? They've done everything we asked for."
"We can figure out an excuse later," Derek said dismissively.
"Are you an idiot?" Justin asked, giving him a half-lidded stare. Derek liked a good fight, but he clearly wasn't thinking things through.
Derek flinched, finally realizing that Justin was annoyed. He lowered his head. "S-sorry."
"Do you even know why you're apologizing?" Justin asked.
"For wanting to undo what's already settled..." Derek trailed off.
