The large boardroom was filled with quiet murmurs until Mason cleared his throat and stood.
He looked around the table at the top board members, his presence commanding attention.
"From the charts and files before me, it shows that we are getting better compared to how we started the year," Mason began, his voice clear and firm.
"But there are still concerns over our reach, breaking into the global market properly. That's where our next six months will focus."
Some of the board members nodded while flipping through the documents in front of them. One of the older directors leaned forward.
"That's a very good direction, Mr. Harrington. And I believe the Alfonso Martinez project will also help boost our public image and capacity on a global level."
"Exactly," Mason replied, then turned subtly to Nicholas, who had been unusually quiet throughout.
'Why is he this quiet... Something must be silently eating him up.' Mason thought with an unreadable facial expression.
