"Got it." I hung up.
Taking the elevator up to the 18th floor, I knocked on the CEO's door.
"Cin." I stepped inside and walked up to Caden. "Did you need something?" Caden lifted his gaze. "Are you prepared for the press conference this afternoon?" "Yes." I gave a slight nod.
"I'll set the record straight about the Azure Bay project then," he said, his tone deep and firm.
"What's your plan for handling Heidi?" I asked evenly.

With an aggrieved expression, Heidi turned to him. "Caden, my wound still hurts." Caden's gaze dropped to her chest, his tone frigid. "If you're in pain, shouldn't you be in the hospital?"
