Micah pressed himself tighter behind the pillar, his palms slightly sweaty as he peeked out. The hallway lights reflected off the polished floor in the middle of Friday night, making everything look sharper and colder. He watched the two men stand outside a glass observation window similar to those in an ICU ward. Silas on the left and Nabil Lobart on the right of it.
Silas's presence was chilling, like the temperature dropped whenever he spoke. His posture was straight, back rigid, eyes emotionless as he stared through the glass. Nabil's aura was different, still cold but controlled. His expression neutral, his hands tucked neatly into the pockets of his coat, calculating and silent.
Micah swallowed hard. There was absolutely no mention of these two being close in the novel. None. Zero.
Not even after the storm annihilated Ramsy Empire, leaving Darcy without any backing.
Were these two cooperating to bring down the Ramsy family from the start?
