Alison stood alone in the echoing silence of the conference room, her heart pounding in her chest. Henry's expression of betrayal haunted her as she replayed their last moments together in her mind. The door had barely closed behind him when the reality of her situation hit her with brutal force. She was trapped—caught in a web of lies and secrets, and she had just lost the one person she cared about most.
With shaky hands, she pulled out her phone and glanced at the time. Henry would be in a meeting with the security team, likely interrogating them about Mark's betrayal. She knew she had to act fast. If Mark had managed to get a hold of Henry's trust, he could easily spin a narrative that would destroy both their reputations.
