    The brightly lit meeting room had everything organized perfectly, each file and every cup were in the same position as other, and about 15 men in their late 40’s or early 50’s sat at the side seats quietly as if waiting for somebody to enter. And the wait was finally over since the doors of the meeting room opened and a youth entered. He was young but the expression on his face was blank, not a single smudge. The people who were already in the room stared at the entering youth with envy even though they had achieved many things in their life.The secretary who was following the youth stepped further ahead of him and dragged the seat on which he sat and then addressed to the elderly sitting at the table.“Most of you already know him and for those who don’t know him. He is Logan Noah son of Blaze Noah, your Chairman. He is here as a temporary substitute for the Chairman himself”
