Victor Blackwood: leans back, tapping fingers Apologize, youuu imbecile, or face the consequences. No cutesy Potter scenes here.
Okay, okay! I'm sorry. nervously fidgets
stands up, pacing around the office You think apologizing is enough? You think I'll just forget about this little incident?
slams hand on the desk Well, you better pray that it is! Because if I find even a hint of defiance left in you, I'll make sure you regret it. Do you understand?
grabs Moreno's collar, pulling them close Good. Now listen carefully. From now on, you're going to follow my orders without question.
releases Moreno's collar, smirking That's what I thought. Now, get out of my sight before I lose my temper.
backs away slowly Fine, fine. I'm going. exits the office, closing the door behind them
sits back in his chair, taking a deep breath Damn imbeciles. Why can't they ever do things right? mutters to himself
outside the office, takes a deep breath Phew, made it out alive. walks towards their desk
picks up a paperweight on his desk, tossing it towards Moreno You're lucky you got off easy this time. Don't think I won't be watching your every move from now on.
catches the paperweight, wincing slightly Got it, boss. heads to their desk, sits down
narrows eyes, watching Moreno intently You better start working on that apology, and make it good. I want to see some genuine remorse in your eyes.
Alright, alright... I'll get right on it. starts jotting down notes on a piece of paper
leans back in his chair, arms crossed And remember, this apology better be sincere. I can spot a fake apology from a mile away.
Of course, sir. It'll be genuine. continues writing
taps fingers impatiently Alright, then show me what you've got. Hand over that apology note.
Here you go, sir. hands over the note
takes the note, scans it quickly Hmph, not bad. At least you seem to understand the gravity of your mistake. But let this be a warning to you, Moreno.
slams the note on the desk Good. Now, get back to work and make sure this kind of mistake never happens again.
nods It won't, sir. I'll make sure of it. starts organizing papers on their desk
sighs heavily I swear, sometimes I feel like I'm babysitting children instead of running a successful corporation.
smirks slightly Well, we can't all be perfect, right?
raises an eyebrow, smirking Perfect? You think you can achieve perfection in this company?
laughs lightly Maybe not perfect, but good. Good is good enough, right?
leans forward, eyes narrowing Good is not good enough in my book, Moreno. In this company, we strive for excellence. Anything less is unacceptable.
Alright, sir. I'll aim for excellence. continues organizing papers
leans back in his chair, playing with a pen You know what, Moreno? I think it's time we had a little test.
A test? What kind of test, sir?
smirks Oh, just a little exercise to see if you really understand what it takes to excel in this company.
