Orion glanced at the blood on the floor, "Seems like the Langstons haven't learned their lesson yet."

"They do need a lesson, but remember, the Langston Group started as a branch founded by Lemmy's parents. Even the company's name and location were chosen by her parents. Wouldn't she be devastated if it went under?" After all, it was a part of her heritage.

Orion's expression was icy as he turned and left the office, heading towards the restroom as well.
