Christopher is missing.

Later that day…

The office, once a hub of productivity and focus, had transformed into a chaotic whirlwind of turmoil as the details of the new project's leak spread like wildfire. The news was met with shock and disbelief among the staff, who had never expected such a grave breach of confidentiality.

Christopher and Brad were being scrutinized because they had dealt with it entirely. The directors and investors peppered them with questions and accusations. They charged them with leaking sensitive information for personal gain. Their suspicious gazes were finally centered on Brad.

Brad's frustration and disbelief boiled over as he retorted, his voice laced with anger. "What nonsense? Why would I ever do something like this? The success of this project is as important to you as it is to me. I've poured my heart and soul into it. Accusing me of such an act is absurd."
