Verdan Zhou was sitting on his private plane, ready for take off, 15 minutes after receiving the call from his wife.
Montgomery Johnson, 'Monty' to his close friends, was a former pilot for fighter jets in Country A, but he decided to live better by being hired by the heir and CEO of the international group of companies, ZFC.
He had always been to the CEO's beck and call while duly compensated. However, it was the first time that he saw his boss this flustered.
Dan only ordered a glass of water, much to the surprise of the attendant.
He gulped it down in a single continuous tilt of his head.
"Uhm...would you like another glass of water, Sir?" The attendant was a bit scared of how frustrated and anxious he looked.
Dan glared at her.
"Perhaps some wine or whiskey, Sir?" She still tried to maintain her professional smile.
