"There's half a minute to go," Benji said stubbornly. "You'll honor what you said, won't you?"
Carter chuckled. "What difference will half a minute make?"
"A lot." The doors to the conference room opened and everyone looked over. Hesper and Renee walked in with subtle smiles under everyone's gazes. "Hello everyone, nice to meet you."
Everyone started chattering when they saw Hesper.
Although this was the first time Hesper was meeting them, she had been under their radar for some time. She was the woman who managed to take Rickard down all by herself.
There was also the love-hate relationship between her and Rickard too.
Dressed in a white suit with her hair tied up, Hesper looked powerful. Renee stood behind her, holding a folder with mysterious content.
Benji sighed with relief the second he saw her. He was glad he hadn't given up.
"Isn't Mr. Wilson anxious to start the meeting? Now that everyone is here, let's begin." Hesper walked to the end of the table and took the main seat. Even though Benji was surprised, he didn't stop her.
"What's the meaning of this?"
