The meeting room was full. Sara, Aria, Lyra, Yassir, and a representative of the ordinary employees were seated around the table, all eyes fixed on Ethan, waiting for him to explain his recent decisions. The atmosphere was tense, and the uncertainty in the air was palpable.
Aria was the first to speak, her tone inquisitive and curious.
"Ethan, why did you do that? By showing your skeletons on TV and the internet, you gave them the perfect excuse to paint you as evil. Now, everyone is either afraid or hesitant to join us."
Ethan nodded, understanding Aria's question but ready to explain his strategy.
