The morning inside Shey Enterprises felt wrong from the very first moment Caro stepped in. It wasn't just the usual office noise, it was the kind of restless silence that came before something breaks. Conversations stopped when she passed. Phones were lowered too quickly. Eyes followed her and then shifted away as if looking at her directly had become dangerous.
Caro tightened her grip on her bag, forcing herself to walk normally even as her chest began to tighten. "Why is everyone looking at me like that?" she muttered under her breath, trying to sound unconcerned, but the unease in her voice betrayed her. One of the assistants hesitated before answering, "Caro… there's something online. It's spreading fast."
