Silas leaned back in his chair, watching as Mr. Arnold beamed at him a satisfied smile. The handshake had been firm, and the deal was sealed. Tritch was now the first official partner of Kurt Technologies, and while Arnold and his team left the room with broad smiles, Silas's expression was more contemplative. His mind was always calculating, always planning the next step.
"I look forward to working with you, Mr. Silas," Arnold had said as he stood up, his hand still extended for the handshake that signaled the close of their negotiations.
His satisfaction was evident, practically written in the lines of his face. For Tritch, this partnership was a golden opportunity, one they couldn't afford to lose.
Silas reciprocated the handshake, maintaining a professional but cool demeanor. "Likewise, Mr. Arnold."
