Felix felt his blood freeze.
The incident? What kind of incident?
He wanted to ask Ursula's secretary immediately, but there were too many people around. And incidents were always better kept secret.
In any case, pretending that nothing had happened, he moved behind Ursula and her secretary, trying to keep calm and not let on that anything had happened. Inside, however, he was blazing with anxiety so great that he felt every cell in his body tremble unpleasantly. What could have happened?
Maybe it's nothing serious, he tried to reassure himself. Maybe it was some group of extreme greens opposed to oil production that had started some kind of picket or other protest? Maybe some journalist was too persistent and security had to deal with him? There were many possibilities, all unpleasant and potentially damaging to the company but not so terrible. So why is he so concerned?
