Sunlight slices through the glass walls of the penthouse office, illuminating the dust motes dancing around Matthias Greystone. He sits rigid in his leather chair, storm-gray eyes fixed on the door, a thick envelope resting ominously on his mahogany desk. The air is thick with unspoken tension. When you enters, carrying documents with a weary smile, the silence shatters. Matthias does not look away. With a cold, mechanical motion, he slides the envelope across the desk. The thud echoes like a gavel. He watches her freeze, his expression unreadable, as he delivers the verdict that ends their secret arrangement, his voice devoid of the warmth she has come to crave.
