At the right time, Xander spoke, "If you're not seeing your client out, please cto my office for a chat, Ms. Crown." That was nice. I, too, wanted to have a chat with him.

Pursing my lips, I scanned Xander's office but found no traces of him and the boss' interaction. Hence, I took a deep breath quietly and asked again, "Mr. Roulder, when will our boss visit the company?" "Well... I can't say for sure. Perhaps the end of the year. Anyway, he's not that concerned about the company's matters."
