The next day, Fiona returned to Voss Éclat feeling the weight of exhaustion deep in her bones.
She arrived at the office a little earlier than usual, hoping for a few quiet moments before the chaos began. The 38th floor was already humming with energy. The big inclusivity event was only weeks away, and the pressure was mounting. Whiteboards were covered in colorful sticky notes and timelines. Mood boards lined the walls with images of diverse models, product mockups, and campaign concepts. Team members moved quickly between desks, discussing final designs, confirming model availability, and polishing every detail to ensure the event would be a massive success.
Fiona sat at her desk, opened her laptop, and tried to focus.
But the day quickly became difficult.
What bothered Fiona the most was Katherine's constant presence.
