Sign the Papers Mr. Langford novel Chapter 450

More importantly, team morale was plummeting.

At eight-thirty that evening, Phoebe sent an internal draft into the group chat.

The title read: Stellaris PR Response and Project Risk Briefing.

Joey quickly replied with a few suggestions.

The service team chimed in with two more.

Maya just left a direct comment on the document: Do not write "we were maliciously dragged into this." The families do not care if we feel wronged.

Wren paused for a long time when she saw that comment.

She had originally intended to write something similar.

Stellaris had been maliciously targeted.

Stellaris strictly protected privacy.

Stellaris never leaked the materials.

All of these things were true.

But Maya was right.

The families didn't need to hear them play the victim right now.

What they needed to see was exactly how Stellaris planned to guarantee they could quit, pause, and track exactly where their data was going.

Wren closed the document.

"All-hands meeting tomorrow morning."

The entire office looked up at her.

"Everyone needs to be there. Remote teams, dial in."

"To discuss the PR response?" Phoebe asked.

"To discuss what Stellaris is going to do next," Wren said.

Her voice wasn't loud, but it brought a slow, steady quiet over the workspace.

"We can't just treat this as a PR crisis. It exposed our blind spots. When high-risk, anonymous materials reached our team, the decision of who could view them, who could assess them, and who would submit them to regulators all came down to the judgment of core members. That's not good enough anymore."

Maya looked at her, remaining silent.

Wren continued, "Furthermore, we thought that as long as we didn't leak anything, we were protecting them. But the families are currently terrified that the data ever existed, was ever accessed, and could potentially be misused. We need to tear this entire process apart and rebuild it."

Phoebe asked softly, "You want to remake the authorization system?"
