Chapter 666: Penny's gift to Atlas

[Global Prime Logistics]

"Meet me today."

Atlas stopped signing some papers as he recalled Penny's remarks from their ten- second phone call earlier that day. He pushed himself away from the desk, gazing at the papers in front of him.

"Sir, is everything alright?" Allen, Atlas's assistant, inquired as he carefully served his boss a cup of coffee. "You seem a little distracted."

Atlas didn't answer right away as he glanced at the coffee Allen was setting on the desk. "Penny called today and told me to meet her. Do I have any other important meetings at noon?"

"Well, you have a meeting with some of our investors."

"Move it to the afternoon."

"Sir-"

"I don't like the tone my sister was using. It's bothering me, so she comes first."
