Two days had passed since the collaboration meeting in the assembly hall. Grayson should've been dealing with a long list of words, but he found himself staring outside at the city skyline.
His mind was preoccupied.
He felt that there was something wrong, but he couldn't quite grasp it.
The door slid open, and Bryan Stewart stepped inside.
"Sir," Bryan Stewart said. "There's been a development you should know about."
Grayson turned from the window, one hand still resting against the cool glass. He didn't speak but raised an eyebrow.
Bryan Stewart turned on the external holographic screen of his light brain and showed something. It was the official statement from the Imperial Military.
"Old Cox is dead." Bryan Stewart said.
In the midst of the silence, Grayson looked at it and read the statement with his eyes.
Director Elias Cox, former Chief Technology Officer of Maxwell Corporation, was found deceased in his cell.
