The instant those words fell, Aungus realized he had to make a choice... and that choice had only one possible answer.
To Aungus, his comrades in the Destiny Organization mattered most... that was also the main reason he had been willing to sacrifice the organization's independence and swallow his pride to join the Alt Conglomerate.
And now, Jonas was clearly using the safety of those members, and even their families, to force Aungus to declare where he stood.

Now he was being asked to declare his allegiance and stand firmly against Amau Sueko. This was naked betrayal. No matter how resilient Aungus was, he could not help feeling anguish and conflict.
