Rino didn't take the question Kasper asked him to heart. He just walked in deliberately, taking in the still room as he settled into the seat offered to him.
The office's atmosphere was not tense, but it was filled with the distinct air of business. Kasper, who expected a response from Rino didn't take his eyes off him, while Amaka leaned comfortably backward against her seat, tapping her lips, as she swung her seat.
"I'm sorry," Rino apologized. "I was caught up with a responsibility."
He didn't wait for them to make any comment. He picked up the envelope on the desk which was labeled Red Tann in bold print across its front in silver ink, and gently unsealed it.
"May I?" he realized he needed to be polite.
Even though it was true that the proposal was based on his drafts, it was prepared on his behalf using Red Tann, so, every member of the group should also feel like the owner.
Well, to him, he was still going to make plans for preventing future claims.
