Sign the Papers Mr. Langford novel Chapter 508

Model source traceability.

Commercial verification ban commitments.

Seventeen supplementary requirements in total.

When the meeting concluded, the board staff delivered their phased ruling.

The application to resume new collection is temporarily denied.

Stellaris is given seven days to submit a comprehensive special review package for re-evaluation.

As Phoebe walked out of the meeting room, her face was like thunder.

Joey had been waiting downstairs for news.

Seeing them approach, he shot up from his seat.

"How did it go?"

Nobody answered right away.

The hopeful light in Joey's eyes slowly dimmed.

Wren looked at him.

"New collection was denied."

Joey's lips parted slightly.

"What about core eligibility?"

"We still have it."

Joey nodded, swallowing the bitter disappointment.

"That's good. As long as we have that."

He said the words, but his eyes were red.

Everyone at Stellaris had been surviving on that one shred of good news for days. After securing core eligibility, they truly believed they could take a step forward. But these seventeen new demands felt like a brick wall slamming down right in front of the door they had just pried open.

Wren didn't tell him 'it's okay.'

Because it wasn't okay.

Instead, she said, "Task breakdown at 3:00 PM."

Joey nodded vigorously.

"Got it."

Stepping out of the ethics board building, the afternoon sun was blindingly harsh.

Maya had walked the whole way in silence. Only when they reached the bottom of the steps did she hand her tablet to Wren.

"I pulled the digital metadata for the meeting agenda."

Wren took it.

Maya tapped on the document properties.

Phoebe scoffed coldly. "APX?"

Maya replied, "Apex."

Wren stared at the English acronym.
