บท 36: Tangled in Her Absence    

Later that night at the Fay residence, Cole sat in his private study, surrounded by papers, blueprints, and holographic projections as he worked meticulously on a crucial project.

He was deep into his work when his phone buzzed, its vibration breaking through the quiet hum of the room.

Without taking his eyes off the projection, he answered.

"Hello, young master Fay?" came the voice on the other end.

"Did you find what I asked for?" Cole's voice was cold and direct, cutting straight to the point, devoid of pleasantries. He had no time for idle conversation.

The voice on the other line responded immediately, understanding what it meant of speaking to Cole Fay. No one dared to make him wait. "Yes, sir. His name is Michael Blair. He's the brains behind QuantumLyfe Technology."
