Charles gestured dismissively, and Ronald caught on quickly. Gentlemen, Mr. Hoffman would like a private chat with the three directors, please.” 

The usual crowd that hung around Charles left first. The neutral ones, sensing the tide had turned, did not want to get dragged down too, so they scattered quickly as well

Soon, the large conference room was left with only Charles, Robert, and two other directors

Charles gestured for them to sit. They were no strangers to tough times, but they had never seen Charles this assertive before. They realized they had underestimated him
