Given Ethan Hale’s status, anyone around him was constantly under the industry’s microscope. Even Leo Martinez had been approached by several CEOs offering their business cards, hoping to set him up with their daughters.

Mia Carter left the conference room, the door clicking shut behind her.

meeting and explicitly mentioning it was about the scandal.
