Silence

It was really silent at the office as Nora rest her back against the wall, her mind was racing. 

Project Hayes... What could it even mean?

The mention of her surname had really shocked her. She thought back to Lila's comment about her parents that she did not even really understand. 

Is this connected to the file Mrs. Thompson pulled away back then?

"I need to find this out." Nora said clenching her fists.

A burst of laughter came from Ethan's office and it made her come to her senses. It sounded like Lucas and Ethan were wrapping up what they were discussing. 

Taking a very deep breath, she adjusted her dress and quickly go back to her desk. 

When Ethan's office door opened some minutes later. 

Lucas left his office first, giving her a nod as he adjusted his clothes. Ethan followed, his sharp eyes went through the room briefly before looking at her.
