“What do you mean by ‘take responsibility’, Mr. Tanner? | thought | made every detail crystal clear to you, and only left the scene after making sure Regina was safe. Now you catwith this security footage demanding answers. What's this all about?” Nolan spread his hands wide, a picture of bafflement in the face of Francis’ actions, “Did Regina even give you the green light to ctotoday?” “Of course | didn't tell her.

“This has nothing to do with my company’s stocks. | just want you to man up and do the right thing. And if that video gets out, it won't just be our stocks that take a hit. People care about trust and morality these days. If the CEO of Harris Group is caught in a scandal and won't take responsibility, I'm sure the shareholders will be very disappointed.” Francis was blatantly threatening him, but Nolan was not the kind to be bullied.
