Chapter 1369: Let them rest today
[PIERSON CORPORATION]
"Mr. Bennet, this is nonsense! How can you just reject this project when it has nothing to do with your office?!"
"This is an abuse of power! If not, then why are you meddling in a negotiation we’ve been working on for years?!"
"This negotiation is being handled by Director William and our office! How could you intervene and stop it?! We need a reasonable explanation for this!"
Atlas sat motionless in his office, staring at the three men roaring across the desk. They had barged in unannounced, shouting about something he had done. Surprisingly, William was not among them, even though Atlas had expected him to come and be buried alive under the weight of his own mess.
Well, William probably wasn’t ready for his burial yet.
Without a word, Atlas pulled open a drawer and retrieved a document. Rising from his seat, he stopped upon noticing the three men instinctively take three steps back.
Was that a trauma response?
"Wha—what are you going to do, Mr. Bennet?!" one of them stammered. "We came here with a reasonable concern about the company!"
"That’s right! Intimidation won’t work if that’s what you’re planning!"
"Mr. Bennet, we need answers right now!"
Atlas blinked slowly before murmuring, "I woke up today and chose peace. Please don’t make me change my mind."
