An hour or or after her encounter with Sola, after the scheduled meeting with the cleaning crew, Romero was left alone once again in her office, giving her plenty of time to reflect. Paule's time in Japan... her eventual heartbreak upon coming back. Kanako's foolish act of kindness. And Carmody's teaming with Priscilla Divine. Romero had hammered in the fact that nobody ever reached out to her... But she wondered if she could even do anything about it if they had.
Based on Carmody's Tweetstagram post and the exchange they had, that was always going to turn out that way.
Based on the conversation she had with Kanako, that was always going to turn out that way.
And based on those two conclusions, Paule was always going to end up here.
Romero had been cursing her inaction. And she now realized that inaction was ultimately inevitable. There was nothing that could be done. Even now.
Even now..?
No.
Romero knew there was an option. A precise course of action and a clear message to be made with it. She had to get her finger off the guard and rest it on the trigger.
Amy Flame was fighting for the Intercontinental Championship.
Colby Jefferson, to her knowledge, was out of action.
Sapphire was dead.
And God only knew where Nikki Kade might be.
