Vanessa felt calm. She sat quietly in Harald MacMatthew's office awaiting his arrival.He was late and she did not appreciate that. She had a schedule to keep up with .However, she took her time to look around. Despite the number of years she had worked in MacMatthew corporation, she had only been inside Harald's office a few times.She decided to give herself a tour of the office. Looking out the window, Vanessa noticed that It offered an impressive view of the surrounding area.It was also spacious and provided ample room for the desk, seating areas for meetings and discussions, and bookshelves, cabinets and display cases.The centerpiece of Harald's office is a large and luxurious desk, made of fine polished metal.

They had certainly made changes since the last time she was there.It was the start of a new week and a meeting was organized to introduce the new shareholders of the company, all the heads of each department were present as well as the former shareholders.Vanessa noticed she still had a few minutes before the meeting started so she stood outside to appreciate the boardroom.The boardroom was rectangular in shape and just like other boardrooms, there was a long table at its center.

Everyone's attention was drawn to Vanessa. "What are you talking about?" Harald asked Vanessa, his voice sounding different."We did pay up your debt, most of it" Vanessa answered"What exactly do you mean by most of it?" Harald asked."Mr Grey here specifically requested that not all of the money you owed him be paid in cash, and we obliged" Vanessa explained."What exactly does that mean?"
