THE ATMOSPHERE inside Keller Capital had changed overnight.
Employees spoke in hushed voices as they hurried across the floor carrying folders, encrypted drives, and laptops that had been pulled from their docking stations. Security personnel stood near every entrance, checking identification badges with a level of scrutiny Sophie had never seen before.
She stepped out of the elevator on the executive floor and immediately noticed that several offices had been sealed with electronic access locks.
Something serious had happened.
A familiar voice greeted her before she reached Lucien's office. “Good morning, Miss Smith.”
She turned to find Lucien's executive assistant standing beside the reception desk. “Mr. Keller is expecting you. He's been in the conference room since seven.”
