CHAPTER SIXTEEN

 

Later that afternoon Nora quickly went down to the executive floor of Black Industries, holding a folder of documents, she seriously prepared for her meeting with Ethan. 

She was just a few steps away from his office when voices was coming from an open conference room, the voices stopped her.

"…I have already taken care of it," Henry's voice that cannot be mistaken for any other person was heard, smooth and commanding.

Nora paused, her heart skipped a beat, she peeped inside the hall and saw henry and one man she didn't really recognize sitting. 

"You are sure there is nothing left behind? No paper traces at all?" The other man asked sounding nervous.

"Of course not, Do you think I would leave any traces on something this sensitive? I have buried something so bigger than this." Henry replied, anger creeping into his tone.
