It was his first day at work.
Mondays were usually packed with board activity.In the past, Lucas was in charge of overseeing staff welfare and trainings. Marcus was impressed by the way he handled it, leaving him to face other pressing matters.
Today, it was different.
Anthonio took charge of every matter facing the company. Looking at him, his face had grown visible hard lines, his eyes were sunken,and his back was slightly bent over
Marcus could only see pain and mulish struggle. He didn't understand why he wanted to do everything, from the simplest, less stressful tasks, to very important matters...
He, and others were seated in a board room, with Anthonio at the far end of the twenty-four seater table. Scanning through the new employees, his eyes rested on the Head of Human Resource... She was beautiful; and looked restless.
Their eyes met briefly, but she quickly lowered it, frantically flipping through one document after another, in a way that surprised Anothonio.
