Asher’s pov :
These meetings were nothing more than a formality to me. I sat there, silent, arms crossed as they all prattled on about their precious shares and profits. Half the time, they didn’t even understand the numbers they pretended to care so much about.
One of the senior shareholders, Carson, strutted over, a smug look on his face. He’d always had a bit of a superiority complex, convinced that my silence somehow meant he had the upper hand.
"Well, nice to see you’ve finally cleaned up your act. Didn’t think you had it in you to actually focus on something," he said, a sneer curling his lips.
I looked at him, not bothering to hide my smirk. "Funny, I was going to say the same about you. It’s a miracle you managed to keep up today without stumbling over basic maths."
