"Mr. Verkade?" The woman gasped in shock, her sense of foreboding intensifying. That man had just made a phone call, and now her boss-or at least she thought so-had shown up. If this was just a coincidence, it was far too convenient.

"Mr. Verkade!" The security guards behind her greeted Gautier in unison, their voices loud and clear.

"Emmanuel, I'm sorry! I didn't know you were coming. Otherwise, I would have waited at the office to greet you properly," Gautier said, completely ignoring the woman at the entrance.
