บท 128: The Stakeholders Meeting

At exactly 1:40 PM, Leon strolled into the presidential hotel conference room where Maxwell was already seated. Maxwell was discussing with someone when Leon came in and walked toward him.

"Is that Rex's boy? Splendid!" The man talking to Maxwell looked up at Leon beaming from cheek to cheek. "Absolutely splendid! You're a true chip off the old block. Rex must be so proud to have raised a fine gentleman like you."

"Thanks for all the compliments! It's also nice to meet you," Leon returned the courtesy with a brief side grin and his face returned to being expressionless.

"Do you still recognize me, Leon? The last time I visited Carlpole, you were just five years old. You use to call me uncle Wall."

"Not really, it's been such a long time!" Leon took a seat beside Maxwell while carefully scanning his environment.
