Chapter 101
The clock on Camille's office wall
ticked past eleven. Most of Kane Industries had emptied hours ago, but Camille, couldn't rest, not with Victoria's revelations about Herod Preston still echoing in her mind.

Hannah sat, placing the blueprints between them. "I've been going over these since the groundbreaking ceremony.
She unrolled the top sheet. "Something feels... off."
"Off how?"
"After finding those modifications to the safety protocols last week, I started comparing
every version of the blueprints."

Hannah met her eyes directly. "Catastrophic failure. Potential explosions at multiple sites. Massive power outages. And the modifications would make it look like design flaws, like Kane Industries had built an inh Camille sat back, the implications hitting her. This wasn't just sabotage, it was
character assassination.
"When did you first notice these discrepancies?" Camille asked.
"I caught some before the groundbreaking, the ones I showed you and Mr. Pierce last week. We fixed those. But these are different. More subtle. It's like someone went through twice, making different kinds of o Or two different people made changes," Camille murmured, thinking of Rose and Herod.
"Maybe." Hannah looked uneasy. "What I can't figure out

"Someone on the inside." Camille stood abruptly. "Keep this between us for now. I'm calling Mr. Pierce, and then we're going through every blueprint. Every specification."
"That could take all night," Hannah said.
