With each step, Martin felt the eyes on him grow heavier, but he never wavered. His face remained calm, his posture confident. He had a clear vision for the future, and today marked the first official step toward achieving it.
As he entered the glass doors of the building, the lobby erupted in activity. Staff greeted him with polite smiles, and several department heads stood waiting to shake his hand. Jessica Robertson was among them, her clipboard in hand and a professional smile on her face.
"Mr. Fox," she said, stepping forward to meet him. "Everything is set. The employees will start arriving soon, and the boardroom is ready for you."
Martin gave her a nod, scanning the faces around him. The people who would soon work under him had no idea of the inner workings that had brought them together, but they would soon see the results of his carefully laid plans. For now, it was his job to ensure everything ran smoothly.
