"That's really weird." Axel rubbed his chin, unable to shake the thought that Moose had disappeared today.

Having spent time with Moose, Axel had grown familiar with Moose's antics. Moose was not the type to simply leave without a word, especially when most members of the board respected him. It was one of his charms and what he called his work ethic. Hence, Axel couldn't get it out of his head.

"A prior commitment, huh?" Axel furrowed his brows, rubbing his chin thoughtfully. "That's even more peculiar."

"Are you worried about Mr. M, sir?"
