Charles noticed the shift in his tone and said, “Cedric, we’re doing this for both you and us. You’re a good-looking guy, but that leg messes with your image. Even a top executive needs to look the part, don’t you think? And your wife—she’s stunning. Wouldn’t you want to dance with her on a clear, starry night? What if one day she walks away because of it?
