Leona walked into her office building with her heels clicking softly against the marble floor. Her hair was neatly packed into a bun, and her black suit hugged her figure in all the right places. She carried herself with grace, but there was a sharpness in her eyes, one that hadn't been there a few months ago."Good morning, Miss Leona," her secretary, Dana, greeted her with a smile as she stood from her desk.Leona returned a slight nod. "Morning, Dana. Any updates for today?"Dana handed her a small file. "You have a meeting scheduled at ten with a client from Brooks & Co. It’s about the investment for the new product line."Leona took the file and scanned through it. "Alright. Send them in when they arrive.""Yes, ma’am."Leona headed into her office and sat behind her desk. The sun shone through the large window, casting a soft light on the furniture. She placed the file on her desk and leaned back in her chair, staring at nothing for a moment.Her eyes drifted to the photo fr

The car rolled to a smooth stop in the parking lot of the Golden Circle building. Through the tinted window, Leona took in the tall glass structure. The morning sun made the whole building shine like it was dipped in gold.Dana glanced at her. “We’re early. Ten minutes before the meeting.”“That’s good,” Leona replied, unfastening her seat belt. “Better to walk in calm than rushed.”They stepped out of the car, the cool breeze brushing against their faces. The sound of their heels clicked on the marble pavement as they made their way toward the main entrance. Inside, the lobby was bright and modern, with tall plants at the corners and a faint scent of lemon from the polished floors.A smiling receptionist looked up. “Good morning, Ms. Leona. Ms. Dana.” she said, recognizing them. “The board is expecting you. The meeting will be on the seventh floor.”Leona nodded politely. “Thank you.”They moved toward the elevator. Dana straightened her blazer and whispered, “Golden Circle is known

Leona leaned back in her chair, rubbing her temples as her team showed her the last mock-ups for the Golden Circle event. The air in the meeting room was filled with the faint hum of the AC and the rustle of papers.“I think we should go for gold and ivory,” Dana suggested, pointing at a set of color swatches.Leona tilted her head, studying the elegant shades. “Hmm… gold works. It’s classic and fits their brand image. But ivory… I’m not so sure. Maybe a deep cream? It’s warmer. Less cold.”Dana nodded, jotting down notes. “Alright, deep cream. And for the table arrangements?”“Tall crystal vases,” Leona said, running her fingers lightly over the designs. “White lilies, maybe mixed with blush roses. It should feel elegant but welcoming.”By the time they finalized the style and colors, the clock showed half past one. Her stomach growled softly in protest.“I’m going for lunch,” she said, standing up and stretching her stiff arms. “You need anything?”Dana shook her head with a smile.

TWO DAYS LATER: UNKNOWN LOCATION The man stood by the window, phone pressed to his ear, his voice low but firm.“It’s ready,” he said.On the other end, a deep voice replied, “Okay… you know what to do next. Don’t keep me waiting.”“Yes, sir,” the man answered, his tone sharp and quick.A click followed, and the line went dead. The man slowly slid the phone into his pocket, a smirk tugging at the corner of his lips.LEONA'S COMPANY Leona sat at her desk, flipping through a thick stack of files. The sunlight from the tall glass windows spilled across her papers, making the gold edges of her planner shine. She was focused, her pen moving across the page as she jotted down notes.A knock sounded on the door.“Come in,” she called without looking up.Dana stepped inside, clutching a tablet in both hands. Her face looked pale, and her eyes darted to the floor before meeting Leona’s.“What’s wrong?” Leona asked, her brows furrowing as she leaned back in her chair.Dana hesitated for a sec

FEW MINUTES LATERLeona has stepped out of her car to get a bottle of water because she was suddenly thirsty. She was halfway to her car when her eyes fell on a brightly lit boutique across the street. The large glass windows displayed rows of elegant dresses, handbags, and shoes that seemed to sparkle under the soft yellow lights. For a moment, she hesitated.Why not? she thought. It had been a while since she went shopping just for herself. Maybe it would help take her mind off the heavy talk at dinner.Leona crossed the street and pushed open the boutique’s glass door. A faint chime rang, and warm air mixed with the scent of new clothes welcomed her. She slowly made her way through the aisles, her fingers brushing against silky blouses, smooth leather handbags, and soft wool coats.She was studying a row of pastel dresses when she caught sight of a figure walking toward her from the corner of her eye. The woman’s face looked oddly familiar, but Leona couldn’t place her. Her mind fl
