Chapter 28 Twenty Eight

• Max anxiously waited for the security footage to arrive. Every passing second felt like an eternity as he stared at his office door, still reeling from the unexpected kiss. He knew he had to figure out why Nichole had come to his office and why she had kissed him.
• After what felt like an agonizing wait, a notification popped up on Max's computer, indicating the arrival of the footage. Heart pounding in his chest, he swiftly opened the video and began to review the events of the day.

It had somehow malfunctioned for that specific time period, leaving him with no answers. Frustration and confusion welled up within him, exacerbating his already overwhelmed state of mind.
