Half an hour was soon over. Everyone made their way to the meeting room.

Gareth’s broad shoulders and lean waist made him look even more indifferent in a suit. There was a grim look on his face, and his eyes exuded coldness. His tightly pursed lips accentuated the icy vibes he had been giving.
The women in the room no longer dared to look at him, each lowering her head.
As soon as he entered, he looked at Elisa, who was seated right next to the main seat.
She was reading the documents in front of her calmly, but he could still feel the distance between them.
