Chapter 23: The Number

The staff of Farnsworth Match stood in the lobby at nine o'clock, in a half circle on the white marble.

They looked like people waiting to hear whether the building would stay open.

There were thirty coaches and a dozen engineers.

The receptionist had not stopped crying since the Showcase.

The young coach with the phone stood in front, holding it low at her hip for once.

The board stood in a row by the elevators.

The woman from the bank held a single sheet of paper, and she did not need to read from it.

"Ronan," she said.

"The board met until five this morning."

"Mrs. Farnsworth's seat is vacant, and your resignation was never accepted, whatever she told you."

"We'd like you to take the chair."

"Chairman of the board, and head of the firm, with your shares behind you."

Everyone looked at him.

I stood beside him in a gray coat, with my hand in his pocket where nobody could see it.
