[Call ended]

While Dale finished the call back in his home, Roger closed his eyes.

/Tap tap tap.../

His right index finger tapping on the table, he thought about the future.

'There's no turning back now… Not that I could before, after what I did in America.'

'It was like spitting in the face of everything I stood for.'

'I've chosen to interfere, so I'll make use of my status and advantages until they all realize what I'm up to, this is the best course of action I can follow.'

"Just thinking about the consequences of that makes my head go numb, all of the meetings and complaints I received from the American congress regarding my actions have been... Numbing."

'But as always, they're easy to deal with, they like to make noise but as long as you throw a few stacks of money down their way they'll shut up.'
