Harold is absolutely going to run off and immediately read everything he can on 'Kaeya' from the network, he just tends not to declare his stalker intentions out loud. It makes them harder to carry out effectively.
"Yes, thank you," he agrees, explicitly accepting the reassurance.
Then he has to explain the second rule, which he wants to do as levelly as the first but understands might not make sense without proper context. Maybe the only thing to do is just repeat it exactly as stated to Carver, and see what Bossie takes from it. Stating it differently in summation might run him into trouble in terms of needing to articulate when violence is acceptable for self-defense and when it isn't, and that isn't really the point of the rule.
"The second rule. For as long as you work with us, if I have reason to believe someone is harming you, physically or mentally, I will not stand by passively as it occurs." A split second hesitation before he adds, "No matter who it is."
He wouldn't just stand by if he knew anyone was being hurt, but it carries a different tenor here. Harold wants it known that he can't be asked to allow them to come to harm.
