Judgment day

The silence in the lobby was ruined by Daniel, Mr. Boone, Elrod, Madden, Laurier, Viotto, Fox, Caddel, Francis, and Mr. Amana‘s steps as they walked through the front door of Investistic Co.

The ten men looked confused, seeing that Elijah was not there to greet them, and

only Dice with a bunch of security guards were standing in the building, and some

guarding outside.

Since they recognized Dice from the other day, they approached him, and knowing Elijah‘s instructions, Dice smiled softly at the men, giving them a welcoming atmosphere.

‘Where are Elijah and Peach?” Mr. Boone asked him.

“My boss will be here soon, but in the meantime, you guys can wait on him in the

board room.” Dice said, keeping his face calm while looking into their eyes.

“This is crazy. Why host a meeting if you can not show up on time,” Mr. Elrod said, frowning hard.

“Please follow me to the conference room.”

“Ignoring me, I see.”

A faint smile was the only thing he got from Dice before he walked off, heading for the elevator.

The board of directors was hesitant to follow him, feeling uneasy to be in an empty building with men they knew nothing off.

“I don‘t think this is a good idea,” Mr. Caddel said, looking at the nine men.

tough.

“What if he already did?” Mr. Francis asked in concern.

“It‘s just been a day since he got hold of the briefcases, I don’t think he had thought about them, Fox. Also, look at the state of the company… I think he has his hand filled with that.” Mr. Madden said, trying to convince himself as much as the others.
