Isaac cast a wary glance at the two men as he stepped into the medical base. There was an unsettling aura about these security guards, though he couldn't quite pinpoint what it was.

So, he quickened his stride towards the office building and found his thoughts straying from the contract. He was keen to see Roxanna, curious about her current activities, and her reaction upon his arrival.
