Chapter 1058: I don't think this is over- I haven't even started.

The congratulatory greetings to Atlas came nonstop as he shook hands with each person. Even those who hadn't voted for him had to smile and offer him flowery words. After the routine of handshakes, Benjamin announced the date when Atlas would officially take his seat, and everyone responded with kind applause.

As for William, he had to sit there and watch it all unfold while seething with anger.

"Again, congratulations to the new member of this board, Mr. Atlas Bennet," Benjamin flashed Atlas a smile while the applause continued. "We are all delighted to have you here."

Having said that, Zoren gave his closing remarks. Standing from his seat, he provided a brief overview of what everyone should expect in the coming days, earning everyone's approval.

And just like that, the meeting concluded.

"Congratulations again, Mr. Bennet. I'll be seeing you a lot," one of the shareholders stopped by the door, facing Atlas, who was standing there to bid everyone farewell.

Atlas lowered his head politely, sending everyone off as a courtesy. It had been a while since he had to do this; the last time was when he was appointed as the CEO of Global Prime Logistics.

Not nostalgic at all.

Atlas exchanged short replies with everyone who stopped in front of him, offering words of expectation or encouragement. After a while, Atlas raised his brows as Dean suddenly stopped in front of him.

"What?" he asked flatly.

Dean smiled and shrugged, and instead of leaving, he walked to Atlas's side and joined him. "Let me join you for a bit," he said. "I'm here because I want to see someone off."

"..." Atlas studied Dean as the latter shoved his hands into his pockets. He shrugged and snapped his eyes toward the door.
