Atlas had heard all sorts of ridiculous things since the start of his tenure-and even before that. But nothing could compare to what he was hearing now.

Standing at the side of the bed, Atlas gazed at Allen, who was lying on the bed, with blank eyes.

"That can't be right," he whispered, balling his hands into tight fists. "Allen wouldn't do that."

Hugo, who stood several steps away from his brother and the bed, sighed heavily. He glanced at the man on the bed and then at Atlas's side profile.

Atlas held his breath, turning his head to face his second brother. "He... wouldn't do that, Hugo. I know him, and he's not that kind of person."

"Then how would you explain those documents in his car? The flash drive in his pocket containing a copy of your database? And those messages on his phone?" Hugo's expression was solemn and dark, unfazed by the burning look in Atlas's eyes. "What about why he was there?
