Chapitre 40: fourty

•Lexus

I opened the door of the meeting room and all the people present there turned their attention to me.

"I sincerely apologize for being late."

I look at all the people present there, staring at me silently. "I-uh-" I licked my lips in confusion, "I overslept." I closed my eyes in embarrassment.

"Well Lexus." I opened my eyes and saw one of the senior members, Ryan, speaking, "It's understandable. We all know you were up all night." He grinned, followed by everyone in the room grinning.

I looked around the room. What's there to grin about? I barely sleep every night. I began walking towards the chair but just before I could sit down another senior member spoke.

"I hope the young lady you took home is okay." Miss Martha, a shareholder in her mid 40's spoke, "She looked like a minor too."

Fuck...

This is what they were all grinning about.

I hesitated between sitting and standing for a while. I couldn't decide.

In the end I stood up.
