Author's POV
[My wife: Husband, I met your brother, Kai, at the audition….]
The moment Lando read that message, he shot up from his chair. His sudden movement made every executive in the meeting room turn their heads toward him.
"Is something wrong, Mr. Lan?" one of the employees asked, pausing his explanation of the financial chart on the projector. "Did I get the numbers wrong?"
Lando's eyes were still fixed on his phone, and without looking up, he said, "No, your presentation is fine."
He was already walking toward the door when he added, "Owen, take over the meeting for now. I need to handle something urgent."
Owen Kingsley—the man officially listed as Zentra's CEO even though everyone knew he was just Lando's puppet—immediately stood up. "Yes, Mr. Lan."
Before anyone could question him, Lando was already gone. Without wasting another second, he called his wife.
"Husband! I—"
He cut her off. "Are you still with Kai?"
