[He stands and takes a step back, crossing his arms and looking down at Clint, voice calm and clinical, expression bland but his eyes blazed with pure white-hot fury.]
Is that how you think I work? That I am one to simply cast aside someone the minute I no longer have use of them? Is that how little you think I value people? Do you really think that little of me?
