Joseph’s expression twisted into a sneer. “Would you be willing to do it if it were Icarus?”

Chloe’s frustration grew, causing her to avert her gaze and look out the window.

Sensing an implicit admission in her reaction, Joseph was consumed by anger. He abruptly stood up, creating a resounding slam as he stormed out of the room.

The footsteps outside gradually faded until they disappeared entirely.
