As a junior member, Nathan had dared to stand us up. How audacious of him!”
Larry, seemingly unfazed by Mylo’s anger, retorted, “I only take orders from my boss! You can either wait here or take your leave.”
The men behind Mylo grew increasingly annoyed, raising their voices to accuse Nathan of insolence.
Ignoring their complaints, Larry tapped his fingers on the table and declared, “If you can’t wait, feel free to leave. But if you choose to stay, then wait here patiently!”
With that, he turned on his heels and exited the room. His soldiers were stationed outside, ensuring no noise would disturb the peace inside.
Mylo sneered at the sight of the soldiers and declared, “Fine, I’ll wait until this afternoon. Let’s see what tricks he has up his sleeve!”

voice resonated, “Alright! I’ll give you the explanation you desire!”
The noise in the room abruptly ceased.
ALL eyes turned towards the door.
“It’s Nathan!”
“He’s finally here!”
Nathan, wearing sunglasses just as he had a few days ago, with a stylish black hat, entered the room dressed in an expensive tailored suit.
