Kyle found himself trapped in the building with Calista, unsure whether he should confront her or simply find a place to hide.
His mind raced, but he quickly realized that retreating into the shadows would appear suspicious, and that was the last thing he needed at the moment.
His best option was to act naturally, despite his growing unease. He shook his head subtly at Isabella, signaling her that Calista couldn't be allowed to join their meeting.
"I'm currently in a meeting," Isabella said coolly. "Tell her I'll be with her shortly."
"I apologize for the inconvenience, but I wasn't informed of her arrival," Isabella continued, offering an apology as her tone remained formal, though she could tell that Kyle was visibly uncomfortable.
She didn't dwell on it, assuming he was merely caught off guard by the unexpected visit.
Kyle, sensing the tension in the air, tried to maintain composure.
