in shock at the

tone of finality before disconnecting the phone call abruptly. Hector looked at the phone in disbelief. He dialed the bigwig's number the next minute. It rang only once before it disconnected again. The next time Hector called the number, it didn't go through. He didn't have to be a genius to realize he'd been blocked. "F*ck!"
