The Apology

"Hey! Who are you? Do you know who this is? Apologize now." The security guard's expression was cold and ruthless.

Barry knew immediately that every staff member was now aware of his existence in the company if a mere security guard also knew who he was. Afterall, Miss Devon did mention something about a staff WhatsApp group. She could have told them all about him there.

"Um...Mr Jackson, I seem to have made a mistake," Matt said, sweating and approaching Barry. "I'm here to ask for a collaboration with your company. I think we got off at the wrong foot. I'm really sorry. How about we start over?"

The security guard was surprised the man had quickly apologized, he stood and watched his boss' reply.

The rest of the people watching were astonished. 

"Is that pompous man, Mr Jackson?"

"Oh, I heard he's full of shit too, look at how he treated that gentleman earlier."

"Yeah, he's a scum bag alright, what they said about him is really true."
