Carter hadn’t expected Sharon to respond that way. A flash of emotion briefly surfaced in his eyes, but it vanished almost instantly as he composed himself once more.

“Sharon, you’re gambling on human nature. Have you considered the consequences if I insist you pay the price? Human nature is the one thing least worth wagering on.”
