Chapter 55: White (11)

Time: 1:10 PM

Location: White Corporation HQ

 

The soft hum of the AC and the shuffling of papers filled the office of John White, CEO of White Corporation, a company dedicated to cutting-edge athletic supplements. Dressed in a pristine navy suit, he sat with his usual composed demeanor, signing off a stack of contracts, eyes sharp but calm.

 

Just as he reached for the next folder, a knock disrupted the rhythm.

"Come in," John said, not lifting his gaze.

 

The door creaked open and Eric Weck, his long-time assistant, stepped in—uneasy, hands trembling slightly as he held a tablet.

 

"Sir…"

 

John finally looked up, catching the tension on Eric's face.

"Hmm?"

 

Eric hesitated for a second before speaking.
