Kenji paused. This was part of why he was there.
Rickard getting involved in Lane family matters wasn't a good idea, but Kenji agreed. Even if they became enemies with Rachael Lane, if he didn't agree, he would have angered Hestia and the Deschamps.
Kenji couldn't care less about Rachael Lane, but he still felt annoyed that his hand was forced.
"What's wrong? You don't have enough authority to decide this?"
Hestia crossed her legs and looked at Kenji with a smile. He cleared his throat and looked at Rachael.
"Please hand the agreement to me, Ms. Lane. I'll return it to you if nothing goes wrong." Kenji looked at Rachael without expression. He was half a foot taller than Rachael and it felt intimidating. He had been around a lot, so he wouldn't be someone who was easily dealt with.
Rachael shook but didn't hand out the agreement.
The agreement wasn't legal, she knew that better than anyone else, so she wouldn't let others just take what belonged to Hesper.
"Ms. Lane, give it to them…" Celine held onto Rachael's hand and whispered, "Hesper looks like a difficult person to deal with. This is just a studio, let it go."
The office wasn't huge, so even though her voice was soft, everyone could hear them.
