"What would you like to eat?" Ethan had just finished a video conference.He stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, gazing at the scenic night view of the city.

In the horizon, he could see the thousands of lights that brought the city to life.

The window reflected his tall figure in suit.His hair was combed back neatly.He was looking down, gazing at the city with sharp eyes, as though he was its ruler.

"Honestly, I want to have fish right now, but chicken sounds great too.Oh, and some steak would be amazing! What should we do? I can’t decide…"

Janet mumbled over the phone.

"Yup! I’ll be waiting for you."

This afternoon, Ethan heard about the news that Janet had gotten replaced.

He had planned to do something about it, but he soon learned that the Perkins Group insisted on having her lead the project.He was really happy for her.
