"I need to find Nigel. How is he? Please tellhe's still alive," Yvonne begged, clutching Nina's hands. Tears were streaming down her face, soaking the sheets beneath her.
Nina wiped her tears and soothed her, "He's alive. But seriously, what were you both thinking, going to a place like that? It's an unsafe building. Didn't you see the signs the government put up?"

His assistant cautiously approached, murmuring, "Sir, this seems to ben connected to the York Corporation. Should we try talking to Nash?" "Talk? To beg for mercy? Are you out of your mind?"
