Alexis, spatting me, eagerly started explaining all the changes the company had gone through over the past few years.
We rode the elevator to the top floor, and Alexis didn't stop talking the entire time.
It wasn't until I settled into the chair of the chairman's office that Alexis, eyes red and nose runny, finally said, "Boss, you're back! Does this mean I get a long vacation? You don't know how many times I've had to postpone my wedding just to handle company matters Seeing his pitiful expression, I couldn't help but say, "Alright, I'll give you a month off.

"I just cto check on things. Under your leadership, the company has been steadily growing, and the business is doing better. That's all I needed to know." I exchanged a look with Nueve, who gave a small, understanding smile. "Then we'll be leaving now." Alexis tried to stop me, but I smiled at him before handing myself over to Hera, darting past him quickly. He was just a beta-he couldn't stop me.
Outside the company. I stood at the entrance and took in the familiar surroundings, inhaling deeply.
When I first founded this company, it was just a small startup with a handful of employees.
In just a few short years, the company had grown to this point, and Alexis's hard work had played a huge part in it.
