Nate's POV

As Jane left my office, I just rested my back on my chair and took a deep breath as I stared at the ceiling.

I did this for a couple of minutes before I stabilised myself and got to work.

I began to work on the documents. I read through them and gave my signatures in the spaces that needed to sign.

This ran for about an hour. During this time, Jane has sent me mail containing all my schedules for the next few days.

I checked what I had to do for today and it was already 11:30 am.

She arranged a meeting for me for 12:30, which meant I had about an hour to get ready for my meeting.

I reviewed the client's work I was going to see in an hour, then I did a little bit of a draft of what I had in mind to give them. As it was about 15 minutes to the time, Jane buzzed me.

She called me on the office telephone, she told me that the client's secretary reached out to her to inform them that they were on their way.

I hung up after we spoke, I headed to the board room and had my seat.
