A Mess

"Your Majesty, Mr Bing has returned to work." As AJ returned to his office on the weekend, the assistant spoke softly. 

"Really? When?" AJ questioned.

"Yes, Your Majesty. He may have returned int he early hours of the morning."

"Did he say why?" AJ asked curiously. It was impossible for Noel to cut short his vacation. It would have to be something major to make him cut it short.

Instead of turning to his office, AJ quickly changed his direction while ordering," I'll be there soon. Let me go see him first."

As he arrived at the door, AJ gave a brink knock and opened the door, only to stop short as he looked inside.

"Noel? " AJ said cautiously. "I didn't expect you back so soon. What's going on here?"
