Jared grabbed a suit jacket from the chair and moved out of his office, almost running. He was glad that Ariana had decided to meet up with him, even though the location sounded weird to him

Why would she want us to meet there?

He snapped out of his thoughts when he bumped into someone abruptly. He looked up to see his assistant staring at him weirdly. No

"Sir? Where are you headed to?" Fred asked with a little frown.

"Oh, Fred, I need to be somewhere urgently, I won't be long," he tapped his shoulder but his assistant didn't take it lightly.

"You're leaving?!" Fred nearly shrieked out loud before he composed himself.

"Don't you know you have a meeting with the Board of Directors? In an hour?!" Fred's eyes were frantic.

Jared sighed under his breath. He just remembered that he actually had to be in the office today more than any other day.
