Mr. Richard (CEO of Gold Label Wine Industry) had just returned to his office when one of his trusted confidants walked over, tilting his head slightly and even raising a hand to shield himself as he said in a low voice, "The two truckloads we sent to the East have gone missing."
This sentence made Mr. Richard stop dead in his tracks. He turned his head to look at his trusted confidant, his expression already turning a bit serious. "So… was it someone hijacking the goods, or is it a problem with the drivers?"
His subordinate pressed his lips together, looking very serious. "We're still not sure yet. The clients have been pushing us, asking where our trucks are. We'll have to wait a few more days to know whether the problem is on their end."
Mr. Richard closed the door, then went back behind his desk and sat down. "What's the value of this shipment?"
"The market price is around 1.2 million."
