It was the afternoon in Frenda. The vast conference room was filled with all nine directors, along with various high-ranking executives and committee members.
When Xander walked in, all eyes turned toward him. He scanned the room, noticing that Jake had already taken his seat in his usual place on the side in the front row.

"So I'm back here even with this injury just in case you have any last-minute issues, and I can take charge." It was an insinuation of ambition, clear for all to see.

"Otherwise, we'll be very concerned about leaving Fulton Group to you." There was no mention of Grace, but instead, they shifted the focus to Futurelink. This acted as a more serious warning.
Those old men from Fulton Group, who were discontent with Xander running his business outside, took the opportunity to express their dissatisfaction.
Xander smiled, deliberately casting a glance at Jake.
"If any of you have evidence of my misconduct, you can report it to the committee. If not, let's start the meeting." Displeased, the other party took a sip of coffee.
"It seems there's none. Let's proceed." With that command, various departments began reporting their progress.

It was already four hours later when the meeting ended.

"It's surely tough for you to travel back and forth. How's Ms. Lewis?" he asked, smiling.
Evidently, he already knew why Xander went to Pamore and was aware of Grace's identity.
Xander's tone was indifferent. "It's surely tough for you too. You harmed yourself just to return here. Why go to such lengths?" After hearing his words, Jake's expression turned a little just minor injury is nothing." S Want to share youret The two went to the chairman's office together, with Hazel trailing behind Seeing Xander storming, Hazel sweated profusely. It was clear that he was furious. S Raymond stood at the desk, seemingly kind yet stern. He drew on a piece of pastel paper without looking up. "Is the meeting over?" Xander replied, "Recent affairs are all settled. Sorry for letting you worry." Raymond glanced at him. "Hazel mentioned you got injured. Is it serious?" "Just a minor injury. Nothing to worry about." "And Gracie? Is she okay?" "She was startled, but you know her. She fears nothing." Xander approached him and helped him sharpen a charcoal pencil.
