John couldn't wait he reached out into his pocket and took the phone. "Hello, who am I talking to?" Contemplated.
"Thank you, Roy," John replied, nodding to the assembled group. "Please, everyone, have a seat.
"First of all, I want to thank all of you for coming on such short notice," John began. "I know this transition has been sudden, but I want to assure you that we are all in this together. As the new owner of this mansion, I value each of your contributions and dedication."
He paused, allowing his words to sink in. The employees listened intently, their expressions a mix of curiosity and anticipation.
"I have big plans for this place," John continued. "But none of it will be possible without your hard work and cooperation. I believe in rewarding dedication and excellence. There will be gifts and bonuses for those who go above and beyond. Let's make this mansion a place we can all be proud of."
