Meursault has never held any doubts about your skill in leading the team, however, he can't say the same for your cooking.

He places his hands behind his back, awaiting further orders. He doesn't move even an inch, no matter the sounds of kitchenware clanging, and plates banging inside the kitchen where you worked your 'magic'. Although, it would be safe to say that there really wasn't anything like it happening in there, rather, it would be best described as a disaster, still in the making.
