He, Who Never Stood

Mr. Ong received calls left and right, his expression getting dimmer as more and more people came to his office to fix the mess that Azure was currently facing. People around him loudly spoke to their phones, not leaving him any space and time to properly think. 

"No, those aren't true!" 

"Yes, we're working on it." 

"The CEO is not available to talk." 

"No, the members of EVE are currently unavailable. You can talk with our representatives instead." 

"We care about our artists very much. We give them top-notch quality care!" 

"Please take down your article! We already had an agreement that you wouldn't expose it to the public!" 

Employees' voices rang in his office, and Mr. Ong felt his blood pressure rising. 

He clenched his fists and pursed his lips together to keep his anger at bay. 

"You!" he exclaimed to one of the interns. "Jay. Someone, fetch me, Jay!" 

The intern shakily nodded as he left the CEO's room.
