Russell, trying to remain patient, responded, "Rina, I'm in the middle of something important. I'll come to you as soon as I'm done, alright?"

But Rina was insistent. "No! You have to come now! If you don't, I'll tell my grandfather to cancel our cooperation. Russ, don't make me do this!" Russell's eyes, usually warm and inviting, turned cold. "Fine, I'll come to you."
