Chapter 873: Chop chop!

[Pierson Corporation]

"Well done," Zoren remarked as he rose from his seat. "Send that last report to my office. Meeting adjourned."

Once those words left Zoren's mouth, he walked out of the meeting room without hesitation. Benjamin followed immediately, leaving the team leading the project to celebrate a smooth day.

Just as they stepped out, Zoren's voice reached his ears. "Ben, what's my schedule after this?"

"Uh..." Benjamin cleared his throat, rushing to keep up with Zoren's pace. "You have a private meeting with... and then, some virtual meetings with... You also have golf practice with the governor... after that, there's a..."

Benjamin listed what Zoren had to finish today, having it all memorized in his head. After all, Zoren rarely kept track of his own appointments and was often clueless about his schedule. Once Benjamin was done, Zoren suddenly stopped and nodded.

"So, nothing important?" Zoren mused in satisfaction, making Benjamin scrunch up his nose.

"Sir, what do you mean, 'nothing important'?" Benjamin gasped, looking at his boss in disbelief. "All of these meetings have been pushed back multiple times. You agreed to finish them all today. They're all important, sir."

But everything Benjamin said went in one ear and out the other. Zoren had already started dialing a number. Benjamin quickly glanced at the screen to see who it was, only to realize Zoren was calling the next person on his schedule. "Mister Pierson!" called the person on the other end of the line the moment it was picked up.

Zoren smiled as he resumed walking. "Good morning, governor. We have a scheduled meeting today, but..." he explained the situation in a short and precise explanation. "Is it possible to move it?"

"Haha! Oh, dear! I heard you were married, but I didn't think it was true. But now that you personally called me, telling me all about this, I guess I have to believe it!"

Zoren stayed on the line for another minute before ending the call, thanking the governor for his understanding. But he didn't stop there; he made another phone call immediately, leaving Benjamin stunned as he had to listen to Zoren repeat the same script over and over and hear the people he called laughing as if it was no big deal.

By the time Zoren reached his office, he had successfully canceled everything, clearing his schedule for the day.

"Wow..." Benjamin looked at his boss in surprise, watching Zoren stop in front of his office.

Zoren glanced over his shoulder, his hand on the door handle. "Do I have other meetings left for the day?"
