"Anna, things just escalated. News about Jnes Corp is everywhere—social media is blowing up with accusations that you're responsible for the company's downfall. They're claiming you used insider knowledge to cover up losses and even took funds for yourself. Reporters are already swarming the airport, so head straight for your gate. Don't stop for anyone."
The call from Diya spurred Anastasia into action. After hanging up, she quickened her pace, tucking her phone into her bag, her head down as she aimed for her gate, determined to slip past the crowd undetected. But as she rounded the corner, flashes erupted in front of her, the blinding light accompanied by a wave of voices rising around her.
"Anastasia! Can you comment on the Jnes Corp allegations?"
"Did you embezzle funds?"
"Were you behind the company's downfall?"
"Is this why you divorced Daniel?"
