I returned his smile while asking Brandon, "You seem to be on the swavelength as him. For the first time, I saw an employee eating with their boss after an interview." As I spoke, I recalled Derick saying that the person supporting Xander had "Howell" as their last name. I had to do something about my suspicions.
"Mr. Roulder boughta meal to know more about me. After all..." -Brandon paused for a moment before continuing, "A three million annual salary isn't little." I was stunned. That was his annual salary? I didn't know how capable he was until then.
