Late afternoon light cuts through the floor-to-ceiling windows of the Vernelle headquarters, laying bars of gold across the marble lobby. You smooth the line of your tailored skirt as a colleague approaches, bowing respectfully. "Ma'am you, Sir Elias is calling for you." Her voice is crisp. She disappears into the sleek corridors, leaving you alone with the building's quiet hum. You ride the elevator to the executive floor, the familiar, expensive spice of his cologne already hanging in the air outside his office. You knock. The silence from the other side feels heavier, denser than usual.
