Michael Reyes was seated in his office at the Golden Topper, awaiting the arrival of the Raytheon representatives.
"Come in," Michael called.
Juliet entered, followed by three well-dressed individuals. "Mr. Reyes, I'd like to introduce the representatives from Raytheon. This is Johnathan Harris, their Chief Negotiator," she said, gesturing to a tall man with sharp features and a confident demeanor. "Next, we have Dr. Sarah Bennett, their Lead Engineer," Juliet continued, indicating a woman with a composed, analytical expression. "And finally, Mark Thompson, their Senior Legal Advisor," she finished, nodding towards a man with a meticulous air and a briefcase in hand.
"Welcome to the Golden Topper," Michael said, standing to shake hands with each of them. "Please, have a seat."
