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."
Hearing that, Allen didn’t argue anymore because he knew his boss well. If it was about family, especially his siblings, then nothing could ever change his mind.
"I’ll make the arrangements now." Allen lowered his head slightly before walking away from the office.
Meanwhile, Atlas remained seated in his position before spinning his swivel chair to face the floor-to-ceiling glass walls behind him. From here, he could see the port, surrounded by ships, machinery for unloading and loading, and containers.
