I knew I had to be careful, but I was determined to see justice served. And as I faced off against Marcus and the company, I realized that I had to confront my own demons in order to come out on top.

Marcus leaned back in his chair, a small smile playing on his lips. "Let's just say that you'll be working on a special project. One that requires a certain... delicacy."

It turned out that the company was involved in some serious misconduct, and Marcus was at the center of it all. I was torn between my loyalty to my new employer and my duty as a journalist to expose the truth.
