The room was buzzing with activity, and though it was impossible to pinpoint who had spoken, Keira Olsen's sharp eyes quickly spotted someone in the crowd who wasn't saying a word.

Her gaze darkened as she signaled to Lewis, who had followed her in.

Lewis immediately moved to circle behind the suspect while Keira advanced from the front. Within moments, they had the instigator—the reporter who had first stirred up trouble—cornered and apprehended.

The man's eyes filled with panic as he was caught, but he quickly shouted, "Miss Olsen is here!"

That single shout turned every reporter's attention toward Keira, their eyes locking onto her like heat-seeking missiles.

The crowd surged forward, shouting questions.

"What's your stance on this? Olsen Group's shares have taken a nosedive because of you. Any comments?"
