*Next Day*
*At Miller's company*
The heavy silence in Andrew’s office was suddenly shattered by the sound of the door slamming open. Daniel burst into the room, breathless and disheveled. His urgent entry only fueled Andrew’s simmering rage.
Andrew’s eyes flared with anger as he looked up from his desk.
Andrew: What is it now? *he snapped* Do you have more excuses, or have you come to tell me how you’ve failed yet again?
Daniel swallowed hard, struggling to catch his breath.
Daniel: Sir, I have news. I’ve found out where the documents are.
Andrew’s fury was momentarily eclipsed by a flicker of hope. He straightened, his intense gaze fixed on Daniel.
Andrew: Where are those? Speak quickly.
Daniel nodded, his face a mix of relief and anxiety.
Daniel: The documents are in Russia. James was keeping them secure there, away from prying eyes.
Andrew’s eyes widened, a mixture of shock and satisfaction crossing his features.
Andrew: James? He’s been keeping them from me all this time?
Daniel nodded.
Daniel: Yes, but I’ve confirmed it. The documents are safely hidden in a secure location in Russia. We can retrieve them.
Andrew’s anger seemed to cool slightly as he processed the news.
Andrew: Good. That’s a start. But what about Kate? Did you find her?
Daniel’s face fell, his shoulders slumping.
Daniel: I’m afraid not, sir. Despite our efforts, we haven’t been able to locate her yet. It’s like she’s vanished without a trace.
Andrew’s expression darkened once more.
Andrew: Dammit, Daniel! How could you still not find her? She’s essential to our plan.
Andrew's voice was tight with frustration.
Daniel: We’re doing everything possible. The search is ongoing, but she’s been elusive. If you have any suggestions or leads…
Andrew’s anger flared again.
Andrew: Suggestions? I don’t have time for suggestions! I need results! I need both the papers and Kate. Without her, the whole plan is at risk!
Daniel’s face hardened with determination.
Daniel: I understand, sir. I’m working on it. But we need to be strategic. The documents are a significant breakthrough, and they’ll give us leverage.
Andrew paced the room, his anger and frustration simmering.
Andrew: Leverage? We need more than leverage. We need Kate. She’s the linchpin of this whole operation. If we don’t find her, everything will fall apart.
Daniel nodded, his face resolute.
Daniel: We’ll intensify the search for Kate. The documents in Russia are a vital piece, and we’ll secure them quickly. Once we have them, we’ll be in a better position to locate her.
Andrew’s eyes bore into Daniel’s.
Andrew: You have until the end of the week to find Kate. I want results, Daniel, not excuses.
Daniel nodded vigorously.
Daniel: I’ll get right on it, Master. We won’t fail.
As Daniel left the room, Andrew stood alone, the weight of the situation pressing heavily on him. The promise of the documents brought a glimmer of hope, but the absence of Kate was a stark reminder of the fragility of his plans. Andrew’s gaze fell on the mess around him, the remnants of his rage, and he knew that time was running out.
