The atmosphere inside the executive meeting hall felt... unusual.
Stephanie noticed it immediately.
The moment the massive doors slid open before her, she could tell something was different.
Department heads had already arrived.
Senior directors occupied several rows.
Even a number of board members had shown up personally.
That alone was enough to raise questions.
Impromptu meetings at Styles Industries were rare.
Meetings involving both department heads and board members?
Almost unheard of.
Stephanie quietly entered the room.
Her gaze instinctively searched for one person.
And immediately found him.
Riley Styles sat near the head of the conference hall.
His expression remained composed.
But after working and being alongside him for months...
Stephanie noticed it.
The slight tension in his shoulders.
The subtle narrowing of his eyes.
The faint tapping of his finger against the armrest.
Riley was annoyed.
