"I am really disappointed in you," Edinburgh went on to say to his son. He was fuming while pacing around the room. "How can you let that little inexperienced bastard screw you over like that?"
Sinclair stayed silent as saying anything could lead to the man yelling even more at him. He didn't want the maids to see how incompetent he was.

"I tried my best dad," he finally found his voice. "I didn't know he had connections…"
"He had connections," scoffed the old man. "What kind of connections does he have? He had nothing! He's a joke. You on the other hand could have called me if you needed help. You don't need to handle everything alone."
"But you said…"
"The next time you've got him in a position that you want help in, call me. Don't handle this alone."
"Yes father."
