Chapter Ten
Mia and I didnât want to linger in the coffee shop too long in case we pushed our luck with Emily, so we called Roland and got him to pick us up outside. Mia also gave Victor a quick call to get him to gather the board for a meeting. Then we headed for the office, and I was feeling really good about the information weâd managed to get out of the barista.
âI want you to come in with me this time,â I said to Mia as we rode up in the elevator together.
âAre you sure?â the blonde asked. âI canât really contribute anything.â
âYou helped me get the info out of Emily,â I said with a casual shrug. âI want you to be there.â
âItâs been a while since Iâve been in a meeting,â the Omega admitted with a soft laugh. âI canât promise Iâm going to be much help.â
âJust you being there for moral support is enough for me,â I said. âBesides, if the board gets pissed that we let a rival go, Iâm gonna need at least one person on my side.â
âYou got it, St. James.â Mia smirked at my words, and we were silent the rest of the way up.
We didnât want to waste any time, so as soon as the elevator dinged open, we power-walked straight to the meeting room.
The board obviously heard us coming from a mile off, so they werenât surprised when we barged into the room. They were in their usual places. Victor was at the head of the table, with Susan on his right. Collins was sitting all alone on one side where he belonged, and Lexi was a little hunched over in her chair in anticipation.
âIâve got good news and bad news,â I said bluntly as I sat down in the seat at the head of the table and gestured for Mia to sit down on the one on my right.
âLetâs hear it,â Victor said with a hopeful smile.
âWe managed to get more info out of the wolf who got away yesterday,â I explained. âNamely, Drake is planning on attacking some of our shipment trucks due on Monday.â
âThat is very good news,â the chairman said in a surprised tone. âWell done, Josh.â
âShall we divert the trucks to another route?â Susan suggested.
âDivert them all, except one,â I said. âIâll follow the truck and stake it out until Drake rears his fat head.â
Mia stifled a laugh with her hand before quickly composing herself. I winked at the blonde, who blushed a little, before I turned back to the board.
âIf we were to even lose one truck of product, then it would not help our situation,â Collins replied, and his face was pinched like heâd just sucked on a lemon. âAre you willing to put the product on the line?â
âIf it gets rid of Drake, yes,â I said smoothly. âIâll cover the cost of the product in the truck.â
âWe canât ask you to cover this,â Lexi tried to reason with me.
âYouâre not asking.â I shrugged.
