Chapter 48

• The next day, Adrian had a lot of work to attend to at the office which made him stay so late.
• As the clock ticked past midnight, the office building stood silent and deserted. Adrian gathered his belongings, ready to call it a night and leave the empty corridors behind. The day had been long and exhausting, and he yearned for the solace of his home. But just as he closed his office door, his movements were halted by the unexpected presence of Denver.
• Turning around, Adrian saw Denver standing there, his face twisted with a mix of anger and determination. There was an unmistakable tension in the air, and Adrian could sense the brewing storm. Denver's words hit Adrian like a bolt, shattering the fragile peace that had surrounded them until now.
