"I'll leave the matter to you as I know you can handle it." The old master Sy said in finality. Afterwards, he strolled out of the conference room without uttering another word but stopped after realizing that everyone else, including his son remained unmoving.
"What are you waiting for?! Don't you have people to introduce to me?!"
Butler Pito stopped himself from doing another imaginary face-palm. On the other hand. Rawlf's face remained blank as if he still don't understood how fidgety his father was all throughout the three minutes meeting and how he observed him consistently looking on the clock.
"It seems that you are exhausted father. How about taking a rest first on your quarter. I can introduce them to you over dinner maybe tomorrow night", Rawlf said simply.
"What tomorrow night?!!" The old master said in a louder voice but after realizing another out-of-character burst-out, he cleared his throat right away and calmed his tone. "I'm already here, what tomorrow night? I mean tomorrow night is different from meeting them today."
Rawlf stood up without another word and walked directly out of the door.
The party of six including Rawlf, the old master Sy, secretary Ryan, butler Pito and the two personal assistants walked out of the private elevator. The rest of the assistant secretary and personal assistant staff all stood up and bowed their heads at the sight of not just their President but the old master Sy.
"Hello old master Sy!" They all chorus.
Everyone bowed their heads except the newbie assistant secretary Zenith Co who met the old master Sy once in her uncle's, the current City I mayor's party.
She took a step forward and bowed her head just when everyone already raised theirs and made her voice extra sweeter and greeted the old master Sy.
"Hello uncle Robert! How are you?"
The old master stopped and looked at the young woman who greeted her trying to distinguish her but still failed.
However, because of his good mood from the upcoming meeting with his grandchildren and future daughter in law, the old master Sy bowed his head in acknowledgement then continued walking.
Rawlf on the other hand didn't even wait or look back when his father stopped to acknowledge his employee as he himself is excited to be with his family.
He opened the door in his office himself and was surprised when two pairs of chubby bodies slammed on him.
By instinct, his pair of strong arms caught the two soft chubby bodies, embraced them and stood up. An ordinary man wouldn't be able to do it as smoothly as how Rawlf did so.
"Daddeh!" Baelfair giggled as she flapped her hands and toes asking to be put down. However, Rawlf ignored her and rather lightly bit his daughter's chubby cheek.
Baelfair continued giggling when Baelfire said after a moment. "Father, is that your father?"
