Drake smiled, stood, and said, "I won't take up any more of your time. I look forward to hearing good news from you soon."

"Don't worry, Mr. Mummery. I'll do my best," Pedro replied.

The call ended abruptly.

Frustrated, Pedro tried several more contacts, only to be met with rejection after rejection. His anger eventually boiled over, and he hurled the phone to the floor.

"I refuse to believe the Wilkie Group can't survive without their cooperation!" he roared.
