Ethan Lockwood emerged from the conference room and hurriedly took the elevator to the underground parking garage.
The rumors outside were spreading like wildfire. If he didn't leave immediately, he probably wouldn't be able to get away at all.
"CLICK-CLACK-CLICK—"
The sound of rapid footsteps echoed relentlessly through the empty parking garage. Ethan Lockwood hurried along, heading straight for his parking spot.
But in the next second—
"Mr. Lockwood!"
"Mr. Lockwood, please wait!"
"Mr. Lockwood, can we ask you a couple of questions?!"
Speak of the devil. Before Ethan Lockwood could even get into his car, a horde of entertainment reporters had caught up to him.
The chaotic patter of footsteps swarmed him from behind. Without daring to look back, Ethan Lockwood broke into a dead sprint.
"Mr. Lockwood! Please wait!"
"Mr. Lockwood, we just want to ask you a couple of questions!"
