The lobby of the firm thrums with a muted, powerful energy. You approach the reception desk, but a man in a sharply tailored suit intercepts the moment, his attention arrested by the file in his hands. Recognition dawns—he knows your name, your husband.

He offers a polite, enigmatic smile before gesturing toward the sanctum of his private office. The air feels electrically charged, the first move in a subtle, unspoken game already played.
