In the Lap of Luxury by Unsweetened Chestnuts

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. Jake even greeted him with a smile from his seat.

Xander took his place at the head of the table. "Aren't you supposed to be in the hospital? It seems you're perfectly fine now."

Hearing that, Jake moved his bandaged wrist.

"Everyone knows that I'm a workaholic. In the past few years, even when you weren't around, I never missed a single board meeting.

"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.

Without responding, Xander flipped open a document. "I apologize for keeping you all waiting. Let's start the meeting."

Suddenly, a director asked, "Mr. Fulton, did you return from abroad?"

Xander paused his document, shuffling and gazing sideways.

Standing behind him, Hazel whispered, "I didn't leak your schedule."

Xander replied calmly, "Yes, something urgent came up."
