“There’s just one thing, Marcus,” Mr. Wentworth added, his voice taking on a more serious tone. “In reviewing your application, I noticed your experiences and insights are incredibly valuable, but we are a forward-thinking company. We’re looking for someone to head a new division in sustainable investments. It’s a position with significant responsibility and one that I believe would suit your talents and passion for making a difference.”

Marcus’s heart soared. Not only was he being offered a job, but also a chance to lead a project that aligned perfectly with his values.

“I would be honored, sir,” Marcus replied, excitement and gratitude entwined in his voice.
