Frey walked out of the office building with her colleagues, only to realize that Nathaniel's Rolls-Royce Phantom was parked out front, accompanied by a car sent by the company.
All the leaders from Technologent Group who had attended the meeting, including the junior designer Maggie, were getting into the car.
