Pointed Questions
Cutting through the flow of the meeting, I raised pointed questions about the recurring customer complaints, and for the first time, Derek’s confident façade wavered as he shifted uncomfortably in his seat. His unease was subtle but telling, and I resisted the urge to smirk at the slight crack in his composure. The customers deserved better, and I was eager to hear how he intended to explain the downturn. His control over the meeting was slipping, and he was fully aware of it.

Thomas Speaks Up
Thomas cautiously stepped in to address my concerns, aiming for diplomacy but inadvertently exposing Derek’s profit-driven shortcuts. The room’s focus snapped to Derek, eyes narrowing as his tactics were dragged into the open. For the first time, a visible crack appeared in his otherwise unshakable composure—and that subtle shift was exactly what I needed to start turning the tide in my favor.
