Rumors (2)

Earlier that day, Chris was in his office going over some data for a presentation that was due the following morning. While some might find the task arduous, Chris enjoyed it thoroughly.

"Hey Chris, you got a minute?"

Chris turned to see the General Manager poking his head into his office.

"Yep, what's up?"

"Can you come into my office for a few moments?"

"Sure sure."

It wasn't unusual for the GM to approach him like this, so Chris had no reservations as he followed the middle-aged man into his large office.

"Can you close the door?"

Only after hearing these words did Chris feel that something was odd. The guy often worked with his door open, unless it was official business that required some form of confidentiality.

However, he had no choice but to agree.

"Take a seat."
