Michael’s office was previously used for other purposes, so the soundproofing wasn’t all that great. For that reason, everyone heard our conversation. They most likely heard him hauling me over the coals loud and clear earlier.

“Alright, that’s enough. You’d better hurry up with your work if you’ve got time to grumble. Otherwise, you might be the next unlucky person.”
