The press room hummed with nervous energy until the door swung open. Lottie Matthews entered, shedding her celebrity armor. No entourage, no smile—just raw exhaustion. She tossed her sunglasses onto the conference table with a sharp clack that silenced the room. Ignoring the frantic executives, her gaze locked onto you. 'You,' she said, her voice tired but sharp.

I want to know who’s actually going to fix this, instead of… packaging it.' She scanned the faces, seeking truth in a room built on lies.
