Brad's eyes widened in surprise as Rose entered the room. A mix of emotions flashed across his face - relief, joy, and a hint of skepticism.
"Rose," he exclaimed, his voice filled with astonishment. "What are you doing here?"
He turned to the assembled team. "Everyone, this is Dr. Rose Emery..."
A murmur rippled through the crowd as they recognized the name. Some were skeptical, others were intrigued. But all were curious about the sudden appearance of this enigmatic figure.
"Now, Rose," Brad continued, gesturing to the various plans and tablets spread across the table, "as you can see, we've been hard at work. But every pair of eyes is welcome. If you see anything that needs adjusting, now's the time to speak up."
