"Is something up with thepany?"


    "It''s Reece," Tricia replied. "Our S Corporation leans heavily on Reece, the movie star, for international recognition. But yesterday, while overseas, Reece was attacked, and someone anonymously used him of illegal activities, leading to his arrest by the local police. It''s causing quite a stir over there, and we''ve already been informed. The media''s bound to pick it up soon, which could seriously damage our reputation. Plus, if Reece is in real trouble, we might be looking at some hefty penalties." Sophie furrowed her brow and asked, "Why are we only hearing about yesterday''s incident now?"


    "The news didn''t reach us untiltest night, after Reece was attacked and detained. With everything going on between you and Mr. Colby, thepany has been heavily focused on managing PR to keep things under control, which slowed down our information flow." "I''ll find a way to handle it."

    Sandy then started dialing her father.


    Sophie, however, couldn''t shake the feeling that something was off.


    Why target Reece all of a sudden? Did Reece stumble upon something abroad?
