Meanwhile, in New York, Elena Skies was in her office, oblivious to the trap that had been set for her. She believed that her plan was proceeding smoothly and that it was only a matter of time before she had the Medipod schematics in her possession.
Her confidence would soon be shattered.
"Mrs. Skies, you have to look at the news," her assistant was saying urgently as he entered her office, holding a tablet. "It's about Aegis Pharmaceuticals."
Elena frowned, taking the tablet from her assistant. "What is it now?"
There, Elena watched as the news anchor read out the news.
"Industrial espionage seems to be unfolding at Aegis Pharmaceuticals. Sources indicate a major security breach, with sensitive information about the company's strategic plans leaked. Speculations are rife about internal sabotage, raising questions about the company's operational integrity."
