The special assistant laughed and said, "Me, spoil him? You're clearly the one who spoils him more! Last time he was on a mission at the border, he blew a drug lord's head clean off, and weren't you the one who covered for him?"
"He's great at everything, but he's too brutal and undisciplined. You need to have a talk with him one of these days. He can't keep going on like this!" Seth Maverick frowned.
The special assistant gave a wry smile. "You're the one who went to great lengths to recruit him. He certainly won't listen to me!"
Just then, the phone in the temporary command post began to ring. The communications officer answered, seemed to pause for a moment, then stood up and said, "Reporting to the Chairman, there's a call from someone named Vera Xavier. She's asking for Deputy General Manager Nathan."
"Vera Xavier?" Seth Maverick frowned, looking toward his special assistant.
