She drove to his penthouse, her mind racing with thoughts. When she arrived, she didn’t bother knocking. She barged in, her determination unwavering.

Inside, the smell of alcohol was overwhelming. Martins sat on the couch, a bottle of whiskey in his hand. His eyes were bloodshot, and he looked utterly defeated.

“Martins!” Madam Katie yelled, her voice filled with anger and concern. “Why haven’t you been taking my calls? Or Carina’s calls?”
