Colby knitted his eyebrows together and glared at Reagan. "I told you to keep a low profile, but you refused to listen. Do you really think that everyone around you is an idiot?" Reagan pouted. "Well, I had no idea he would think in that direction!" "That's enough. Go work on what you need to do. I'll go meet that young man!"

"Aren't you the one who's thinking you can get away with anything?" He got to his feet, his six-foot-tall stature making him half a head taller than Colby.

"This slap is for the verbal abuse you showeredwith!" Nash said coolly, a frosty look appearing in his eyes.
Colby received another slap across the face.
"This slap is for the favoritism and abuse of power you displayed despite being a government official!" Another slap rang out.
