Dear EX
"Sarah asked me to pull the old paper liquidation audits for Apex Tech from two years ago for the press release archive."
"Row four, bottom drawers," he nodded, returning to his computer screen.
I walked down the quiet aisle to Row Four, my heels clicking softly against the concrete floor. I dropped to my knees in front of the heavy metal filing cabinet marked APEX TECH – LIQUIDATION & ASSET TRANSFERS (2024).
I pulled open the bottom drawer, the rusty metal tracks squeaking in the quiet room.
For thirty minutes, I flipped through thick paper files, scanning pages of confusing financial numbers, debt statements, and bank audit logs.
