Avery and his companions, which currently consisted of him, Kasandra, Jasmine, Ezra, and Olivia, were escorted to a private room upon arriving at the Mercenary Association branch on Etania IV.
Already waiting inside were branch manager Luca and Burke.
Even though he had not been directly involved in the altercation, and had even helped them out, Avery could not help but scowl when he saw Burke. He was one of the co-leaders of his and Doyle's mercenary company, and it could be considered a failure on his part to keep his friend and men under control.
'Try to keep calm. He's not free of responsibility, but he's also not the one that I should be taking my frustrations out on.' Avery thought, breathing in deeply and controlling his animosity towards Burke.
So long as the man had come here to approach them with them sincerity, then Avery would try to be reasonable.
Once Avery and the members of his team sat down across from him, Burke bowed his head and began apologizing.
