The next morning, in the CEO’s office at Warren Group, Alex had just returned from the conference room when Justin burst in. “Uncle Alex, look what she did to me!”

Justin pointed at the back of his hand, where the veins showed clear signs of being repeatedly jabbed by a large needle. “She said the nurse was new and might miss, so she would do it herself. She ended up stabbing me four times!”
