Alessandro’s POV As I scrolled through the text messages that I sent to Catherine earlier today, a knock came on the door of my office. “Come in,” I said, sitting upright on the swivel chair and putting my phone away. Marco walked in, clutching a folder of documents to his chest. “The shareholders are ready for you, sir,” He announced. Nodding, I got up, grabbed my phone and pocketed it before taking my silver pen, in case I needed to sign a document and exiting the office, with Marco trailing behind me. Stepping into the conference room, the shareholders stood up and gave me a bow. Nodding, I went to take my designated seat as CEO at the head of the table. “Good day, all,” I uttered into the conference microphone. “We are all gathered here to discuss the future of this company.”
