As Don stepped out of the changing area, he was greeted by a line of guards forming a barrier between him and the rowdy crowd of reporters. As soon as he stepped out, the reporters' questions grew louder.
One of the guards nearest him, maintaining a respectful tone, gestured him forward. "This way, Mr. Bright."
Don nodded, stepping into the aisle they'd created as the guards began to lead him away. Cameras flashed rapidly, and the questions grew more urgent.
"Mr. Bright, what do you think of Starboy's reaction to your victory?"
"Do you think Apex could have performed better?"
"Were you expecting to win against a prototype?"
He ignored the barrage of questions, keeping his gaze forward as he followed the guards through the hallway.
