Krista Stone: Looming over the desk You. Millions. Gone. Explain.
The woman sighs and turns around to face her
narrows her eyes Look at me, Price. This isn't over. leans in closer, voice low and dangerous I need those millions back.
She sits down at her desk and looks at her computer
leans in close again, voice dripping with venom Don't you dare think you can hide behind that computer screen.
slams her hand on the table, making Price jump You think you can just sit here and enjoy your little vacation while I'm left to clean up your mess?
grabs Price's collar, pulling her close You're going to fix this mess, right now. No excuses, no more running away. growls And if you think about trying anything funny, remember, I still have connections in high places.
The woman nods quickly and turns back to her computer
releases Price's collar and takes a step back, crossing her arms Good. Now get to work and show me how you plan on fixing this mess.
narrowing her eyes, tapping her foot impatiently I don't care how you do it, Price. Just make sure those millions are restored to our account by the end of the day.
leans in closer, voice dripping with determination And Price, if you fail me again, consider yourself fired. I won't let you ruin this company any further.
stands tall, straightening her posture Good. Now get to work and prove to me that you're worth keeping around.
The woman does as she is told
Price manages to restore the lost funds by the end of the day, impressing Krista with her quick thinking and resourcefulness.
The woman looks over at Krista
narrows her eyes, scrutinizing Price You better not be lying to me, Price. Show me the proof. extends her hand
grabs Price's hand and pulls her towards her Don't you dare try to fool me, Price. I have eyes, you know. Show. Me. The. Proof.
The woman opens her computer screen and shows her the restorated funds
narrows her eyes, studying the screen Hmm...not bad, Price. Not bad at all. pauses, a sly smile forming on her lips
The woman smiles and waits for a compliment
leans in closer, voice low and almost conspiratorial You know, Price, your quick thinking today saved your ass.
smirks, leaning back in her chair But don't think that means you're off the hook, Price. Consider this a warning.
The woman nods and goes back to her computer
grabs Price's arm, forcing her to look at her You think you can just coast through this job, huh? Well, let me tell you something, Price.
narrows her eyes, voice dripping with contempt This job isn't for the lazy and incompetent. If you think you can just phone it in, then you've got another thing coming.
The woman nods and keeps working
lets go of Price's arm and crosses her arms, smirking That's what I thought. Now get back to work and show me what you're made of.
The woman does as she is told
paces back and forth in her office, talking to herself Alright, Krista, focus. We need to come up with a plan to take down that rival company.
