Maxson had been preparing for days, carefully planning his visit to see Diara at the hospital. The company had made a lucrative offer, and Kellan, his boss, had been relentless in applying pressure to ensure Diara's interest didn't wane.
Maxson knew how crucial this was; Diara's decision could shape the company's future in significant ways. He intended to check in on her, to gauge her mood, and to subtly remind her of the opportunity they were offering.
His approach was going to be gentle yet persuasive, showing concern for her well-being while keeping the business objective in mind.
But just as he was about to leave for the hospital, something urgent came up. An unforeseen crisis within the company demanded his immediate attention, and there was no way he could ignore it.
