Chapter 5 - Michael Confronts Daniel Brooks At His Manhattan Office

The sleek glass doors of the Manhattan corporate skyscraper bore the gleaming gold letters of Bennett & Brooks Enterprises.

Michael strode through the lobby without breaking his stride, ignoring the receptionist who stammered in surprise.

He pushed open the heavy oak doors of the corner executive suite without knocking or announcing his arrival.

Daniel Brooks sat behind his massive walnut desk, signing documents while talking smoothly into a wireless headset.

Daniel looked up, expecting to see his corporate secretary, but froze when he saw Michael standing in the doorway.

“Michael... what are you doing here? I thought you were taking the weekend off with Ethan,” Daniel stammered nervously.

Michael walked across the plush Persian rug in absolute, terrifying silence, his dark eyes locked onto his partner.

“Put the pen down, Daniel,” Michael said, his voice dropping into a register so cold it made the air feel freezing.
