Back at Frost Corporation
The conference room was dimly lit with only the projector illuminating light. A man stood at the front looking professional in his suit as he explained the chart displayed. He would look between the screen and his audience from ti to ti. He had made sure to morize his presentation to avoid any slip ups.
Ding!
The already silent room fell more eerily quiet Who would dare to leave their phone on speaker especially in the presence of the big boss? They all looked around trying to find the culprit. One of them suddenly dropped his jaw and all of them followed his line of sight.
Zach had his phone in hand and his lips lifted into a small smile. His face looked so serene and gentle.
Ajtlh@***: Happy?
Zach fought the urge to not smile like a fool as his fingers moved elegantly across his phone screen. She had actually fulfilled her first half hour check in.
Everyone: "..."
Ahismine@***: Very, very happy. Don't forget the next one.
His phone chid once more and a direct ssage ca in.
Xavier: What ti will your eting end?
Zach ignored the ssage and went back to his email inbox. However, another ssage from his brother ca.
Xavier: Do you plan on working after your eting?
His phone chid again. It was Amy's ssage this ti. He ignored his brother and made to check her ssage when Xavier texted him again. His brows furrowed in annoyance before he swiftly blocked his brother's number and went back to Amy's ssage. The annoyance dissipated when he read the ssage and a soft chuckle escaped his thin sexy lips.
"Holy shit!" The presenter blurted out. He gasped when he realized his mistake. "Please forgive boss!"
He imdiately got down on the floor and kowtowed a few tis showing his sin repentance. He would not be surprised if he was kicked out of the eting, or suspended from work or worse, fired. Everyone held their breaths awaiting with him his judgent.
"It's okay", Zach said without raising his head.
Everyone: "..."
The n felt Zach was too cool with his nonchalant attitude while the won swooned when they experienced such a rarity. The man wanted to shout his thanks but he was quickly signalled by George not to utter a word more. So they all fell silent and patiently waited for their boss to finish his business. Zach was simply eliminating any distractions from giving his attention to Amy.
Ajtlh@***: Aren't you in a eting? You need to focus.
Ahismine@***: Alright, I will. I'll talk to you soon.
Zach put down his phone and looked up at the awaiting audience. "Proceed", he instructed.
