[LYON Group's conference meeting]

Soft applause erupted in the conference room as Dominic introduced the new members of the board. Everyone smiled at the three men standing around the table, smiling back at them for the warm welcome. 

"Many things happened in the past several months. I must admit some things left a bitter taste in my mouth, regretting that years of friendship fell apart just like that. However, I believed it was all part of the betterment of the LYON Group." Dominic, standing at the end of the long oval table, glossed his eyes on everyone's faces. "We lost a few important colleagues who also became our friends and family, but I'm certain that isn't enough to stop the LYON Group from growing."

He took a deliberate pause, smiling subtly. "I once again want to congratulate our new members of the board. May we all get along well and work together for the same goal."
