Samuel hurried to the company, feeling every stare as he passed by. The whispers followed him like shadows, reminding him that everyone was talking about the news. He tried to ignore it, but the tension gnawed at him. It was hard to block out the curiosity and judgment in people's eyes.
When he finally reached his office, Samuel immediately called Timmy. He tried to keep his voice steady. "How's it going?" he asked.
"Sir, we're still working on the investigation," Timmy said carefully. "I'll let you know as soon as we have something."
Samuel nodded, though Timmy couldn't see him. "Alright, I'm in the office. Keep me posted."
"We'll do our best, Sir," Timmy replied before the call ended.
