[From: Mr. Pierson]
Sometimes two heads are better than one. Should we meet today to discuss this problem and perhaps resolve it quickly? It would be better than exchanging messages. After all, this matter is now also my problem.]
For a moment, silence filled the CEO's office as Benjamin and Zoren stared quietly at the phone.
"Sir…" Benjamin's eyes lit up as he turned to Zoren. "Miss Penelope is willing to help!"
A broad smile stretched across his face, and hope clearly shone in his eyes.
"Sir, this is good news!" Benjamin took a step closer, excited. "If we can get her to play along or help with the planning, we might resolve this quickly! After all, if Miss Penelope is the one to explain your separation, the chairwoman will believe it."
Zoren reconsidered and nodded. "Fair enough, but not today."
"Sir…" Benjamin felt like tearing his hair out. "Why?!"
"Thursday today."
