"Women like assertive men, Cassian. Make your needs clear, and they'll understand and stop pushing you around..." Robert said with a confident smile as they finally reached the office.

"You mean Sergeant Dallas would understand if I told her I don't want to run her errands?" Cassian asked with a grin. Robert, who had been smiling, suddenly stared at him in shock and blurted, "Wait—don't tell me the women you were talking about are Detective Alix and Sergeant Dallas, just because they make you run errands?"

"Yeah, and a few others..." Cassian replied, making a somewhat awkward face as he nodded.

Robert looked at him with a mix of disbelief and exasperation, letting out a sigh. "What else should I expect from a kid..." he muttered, then added, "The advice I gave only works with women who are close to you. Don't even think about trying that with Sergeant Dallas—she'll eat you alive."
