Beyond the Divorce

Noah Kent knew we were here and came to the construction site to meet us in person before we could ask to see him.

Noah was proud as he looked at the emerging New Bourdamun. He had built this single-handedly during his tenure. Anyone would feel proud looking at the new city rising from the ground.

Noah promised to schedule the meeting and send out invitations to the senior leaders.
