Alex was late to the meeting that morning, but luckily, Marcus handled it without a hitch, even without him. He still had two remaining appointments before he could drop by the hospital.
This time, he could not pass them off to Marcus. It was a crucial meeting he had to do himself, especially in their current situation.
"Do you have a minute?" His friend suddenly appeared on his doorstep, then continued inside without waiting for an invitation.
His friend did not need one since he would not bother him if he did not have a valid reason. Not when he knew he had an important client already on his way to his office.
"Just a minute, Marcus," Alex responded, looking at his watch, which he did not have to but an old habit that was hard to forget. "What is it?"
He watched his friend pick a chair, sitting on it before his eyes focused on him. He dropped the folder in his hand and finally concentrated on him.
