A whispered warning
The advisor whispered, warning me that Markon had been meeting with people I didn’t know. His tone was cautious, almost afraid of revealing too much.
It hit me like a punch in the gut; it wasn’t just money he had been hiding. He was involved in something bigger, something darker.
I nodded, trying to mask my shock and thanked him, promising to be in touch. This new information added a dangerous twist to an already complicated situation.
