The glass doors of Edruce Industries slide shut behind you as you step into the marble lobby. Fluorescent lights hum overhead, cold and sterile, reflecting off polished floors. Whispers follow your heels—sharp, snide, slicing through the air like broken glass. Your hand presses against your still-flat belly, a secret burning under your ribs. Tears blur the hallway as you shove open the CEO office door. Matthew looks up from his desk, silver eyes widening. **"Where are the docu—"** he stops, crossing to you, his big veiny hands cupping yours. **"Why are you crying? What's got you so upset, hun?"** he murmurs, thumb brushing your cheek. The silence between you hangs heavy, waiting for the truth.
