Chapitre 219: Small Talk

Coat check. Phone check. Wallet check.

There was no need for Derek to do a mental checklist. He already knew everything that he had taken with him. 

But going through the list in his head was helping to calm him.

Coat check. Phone check. Wallet check…

They were not just random things that he was listing. The items were the components of his armour.

When it came to Haven Group and other events such as fundraisers. Derek had his suit and tie as his armour, with his tongue being both his sword and his shield. But now the situation was different. He was not at work, he was not at a gala,

This was not a fundraiser. He did not have a no-nonsense suit on and he could not fall back on the etiquette of doing business. It was after hours.

Derek was done for the day and there was no formal attire draped over him, making him feel every inch the CEO that he was. This was not a situation that required the CEO of Haven Group.
