"Whatever helps you sleep at night!" Alex snarled, his hand slicing through the air

with impatient finality.

Instantly, Discipline officers lunged forward, gripping George fiercely by the arms,

yanking him from the room.

"You're going to regret this, Alex! My family controls the Union-you'll pay dearly

for this!"

George screamed, his voice cracking with furious desperation as they dragged

him mercilessly across the threshold.

Hans staggered forward, panic turning his face pale and sweaty.

"Mr. Alex, please!" he begged, collapsing onto his knees in a pathetic heap.

"I was wrong, terribly wrong! Give me another chance! I swear I'll never cross the

line again!"

"I got lost in a moment of greed!" Hans sobbed, clutching desperately at Alex's

feet, his pride dissolved into tears.

"Think of my years of loyalty, sir! Can't you forgive just this once? I promise-it'll

never happen again!"

Hans trembled violently, his hope evaporating like mist in sunlight as he watched

even Mr. Smith, his strongest ally, dragged down by the chief's unyielding wrath.

How could a mere manager survive against a titan like Alex?

"Get him out of my sight," Alex ordered coldly, and the Discipline Officer seized

the man and dragged him away like a sack of shame.

"You just can't let anyone else succeed, can you, Alex? Why does it always have

to be me?" Clara spat venomously, stepping forward, her eyes blazing with raw

fury.

"What are you talking? He betrayed his duties, stole from the very hands that

trusted him, and peddled garbage to innocent people. He deserves every damn

consequence," Alex responded coldly, unwaveringly firm.

"You could've looked away!" Clara's voice cracked sharply with rage. "It wouldn't

have cost you anything! What's wrong with you? Do you even have a shred of

humanity left?"

"Have you completely lost your mind? He's a criminal-can't you grasp something

as simple as that?" Alex fired back, incredulous at her audacity.

"Oh, spare me your fake righteousness!" Clara sneered, her words dripping with

contempt.

penis, you think you have the right to sabotage me, ruin my business, destroy
