The dimly lit room was devoid of any light, and as Reece's agent opened the door, a foul smell immediately hit him. The room was in utter disarray, with trash strewn all over the floor.
It seemed unimaginable for anyone to stay in such a room for even a moment, yet Reece had been there for four whole days.
"Reece! Come on, snap out of it!" The agent stepped forward and pulled Reece up from the ground.
Reece's eyes seemed void of any light.
"Reece, listen to me, there's been a huge shake-up at Russell Enterprises! Did you hear me? You need to get yourself together and go to the office. The big boss wants to see you, got it?"
"Has Sophie been found?" Reece's voice was hoarse and choked as if he hadn't had a proper drink in days.
The agent paused before saying, "Ms. Sophie is dead. You need to let go of the past. I know you're grateful to her, but we must look forward."
"Dead? Who said she's dead?"
"She's been missing at sea for four days without a trace! Isn't that as good as dead?" The agent, growing impatient, said, "What you need to do now is to win over your new bosses. Otherwise, the career you've fought so hard for will come to nothing."
"Only Sophie can be my boss." Reece turned away, unwilling to engage any further with his agent.
The agent exclaimed with frustration, "Why are you being so stubborn? Do you have any idea that the CEO of Russell Enterprises authorized a merger with S Corporation? Their chairperson sees potential in you and wants to make you the next big star. Can't you see what's good for you?"
Reece was stunned. After a moment, he stared at his agent and asked, "Who's looking for me?"
