Whether Huaisang is aware of it or not, Hands' hand hovers at the small of his back every time he wobbles too far in one direction. He never needs to actually course correct, but the guide is there just out of sight all the same. As they go, people make space for them, a clear show of deference until they arrive in the lobby where they're greeted by Antonio.
Hands doesn't often spend much time down here beyond his coming and going for the day, and so gazes do surreptitiously slide towards them and this strange irregularity. Perhaps Huaisang will get a taste of how incredibly well organized Hands is that he leans in when he speaks, that hand finally making contact with the small of his back. It could just be to afford the young man privacy, but to anybody watching on it could look far more intimate than just that. Wheels are now in motion.
"I don't anticipate anybody visiting the villa this evening. Security know this and will deal with any unwanted guests in the same way they usually do."
He's half speaking to Huaisang but knows Antonio will be listening in too.
"Try to rest. Everything will be taken care of for you. Anything you don't have that you need, simply let Antonio know. I'll meet you tomorrow morning at the villa at 7am where we will talk ahead of the board meeting. Do you have any questions for me?"
