"Where is she?" Thomas yelled as they entered his company premises.

Silas followed closely behind, with Wade not far away either. His heart was racing as he watched his brother shout at the staff.

He had hoped for a change, some emotion other than sadness and silence from Thomas. But with this rage, this bitterness written all over Thomas's face, it made Silas wish for the quiet version of his brother to return.

As they approached the entrance, Silas saw that many of Thomas's employees had gathered in the reception area.

"Where the hell is she?" Thomas asked again, moving through the crowd.

The employees stepped aside, each of them avoiding his eyes.

"Someone better start talking before I curse you all out!" Thomas snapped.

A murmur went round the staff before one of them stepped forward.

"We... couldn't stop her," the man said.

"What? You let her go?" Thomas roared, making everyone flinch. "Fuck!"

Silas's heart sank as he watched Thomas pace angrily around the room. He moved quickly, placing a calming hand on Thomas's shoulder.

"Hey, easy, bro," he whispered.

Thomas trembled with anger in Silas's hand but didn't say anything. He paused, took a deep breath, then turned to face his brother. "Thank you."

Though Silas wasn't entirely convinced by Thomas's sudden calmness, he let him go.

Thomas turned back to his employees. "What happened?" His voice was softer now, but the staff still flinched. The room went silent until Thomas spoke again. "Anybody?"

Another man stepped forward. "I... saw her when she came in. When... she saw me, she tried to run into your office using the elevator."

Thomas groaned, tapping his forehead. "And?"

A woman added, "We started shouting. Since everyone knew she had been arrested, we were shocked to see her here."

A security officer spoke up next. "When I heard the noise, I ran over to your office, sir. But... I was too late. She... found a way to escape."

"How?" Thomas growled, the veins on his forehead bulging like they were going to pop.

They all went silent again.

"Who else saw her?" Wade asked.

A few hands went up reluctantly.

"But none of you knew when she left?"

"How is that even possible?" Thomas asked before anyone could respond. "How
