During His First Strategy Meeting I Asked A Few Critical Questions That Made Him Slammed Shut, S

The air in the conference room felt thick, like old smoke trapped behind glass. During his first strategy meeting, I asked a few critical questions that made him slam shut his folder with a sound like a gunshot. I didn't question it at first, the way his knuckles turned white against the mahogany table. During his first strategy meeting, the silence became a physical weight. I asked a few critical questions about the offshore accounts, and the color drained from his face until he looked like a statue. During his first strategy meeting, he realized the room wasn't on his side. I asked a few critical questions, and something shifted in the way the lights flickered overhead. During his first strategy meeting, he looked at me as if I were a ghost he hadn't planned for. I asked a few critical questions that revealed the rot he had spent months hiding. Everything is different now, though the projector is still humming in the dark. You eventually realize that some careers end before the meeting is even over.
