"When are we going to announce this new company?" His grandmother asked.

"Well six is the majority. You do what you have to do, Ace," she said, rising to her feet. "Celine, would you walk me out?"

Celine forced a smile on her face. "Sure," she said in a monotonous voice.

Sparing one last look at Ace, who returned the threat in her stare, she huffed and stepped to her mother.

"Goodbye everyone," his grandmother said behind her shoulder, as she was led out of the room.
