It had been a long time since Roseanne last saw Étienne Montagne, the man who had once introduced himself as Kaden's 'friend' and turned out to be the chief engineer of Polaris Aerospace.
He had always exuded a radiant energy as ever, his presence lighting up any room he entered. Étienne's smile seemed to make everything brighter though he never overdid it for personal gain.
There was something genuine about him, a warmth that was complemented by his sharp blue eyes, eyes that spoke of passion, intelligence, and ambition. Anyone who paid attention could see he was more than just a charming face; the way he engaged with people showed an innate curiosity and depth of thought.
His arrival at the office today wasn't a complete surprise to Roseanne. As the person responsible for managing the chairman's schedule, she had seen Étienne's name in the calendar and even helped arrange his meeting with Czar.
Still, she hadn't expected him and his assistant to show up quite this early.
