Isaac cast a wary glance at the two men as he stepped into the medical base. There was an unsettling aura about these security guards, though he couldn't quite pinpoint what it was.

Regardless, he reminded himself that the contract signing was of utmost importance.

So, he quickened his stride towards the office building and found his thoughts straying from the contract. He was keen to see Roxanna, curious about her current activities, and her reaction upon his arrival.

He quickly located Roxanna's office since he had visited numerous times. Thus, he was well-acquainted with its whereabouts.

So, he hesitated momentarily before cautiously pushing the door open. The sight that met his eyes was Roxanna, slumped over her desk. The window behind her was ajar, allowing a gentle breeze to brush against her face.
