Henry’s Shaky Cover
Henry looked as if he’d seen a ghost, mumbling incoherently about another woman. Before I could press him for details, Lucas jumped in, eager to support his story. “She must have grabbed something before the cameras caught it,” he blurted out, his tone rushed and unconvincing. I studied them both, watching as they clung desperately to their flimsy excuse. It was a feeble attempt to maintain their composure, and everyone in the room could see right through it.

Davis’s Quiet Challenge
Davis pivoted sharply, his expression inscrutable, locking eyes with Lucas. “That’s a serious accusation,” he said, his voice calm yet commanding. “And you have no proof, Officer Lucas.” His words cut through the silence, the room hanging on every syllable. Lucas shifted uncomfortably, the weight of the moment sinking in. He was out of his depth now, and it was clear Davis had taken control.
