Zoe Walker quickly shook her head, her heart pounding with anxiety. "Marvin, I didn't mean it that way. I'm just thinking about the company's best interests."
Marvin Mitchell's lips curled into a cold smile. "If you truly cared about the company, you'd support its decisions instead of stirring up trouble."
Zoe's face burned as if she'd been slapped. Marvin's message was clear: the team leader position was going to Sylvia Byrne.
Marvin had another engagement and didn't stay long. Before leaving, he nodded at Crystal Foster and gave Zoe a meaningful look before turning to go.
Zoe didn't miss this interaction. She glared at Crystal, then watched Marvin's retreating figure, a suspicion forming in her mind.
Marvin was off to meet Martin Riley. He had finalized a deal with a partner who had previously intercepted a contract. With the launch of a new drug, they needed a venue.
