Chapter 90: Ray’s dilemma
Ray’s office door burst open and his sister strode in. With her momentum, it was clear she was angry.
"Ray! What is wrong with you?! Today marked three months you have been inside this office and wouldn’t come out. I bet you have forgotten the road to the house. What is going on? You don’t tell me anything anymore. Mom, dad, grandpa, and everyone else are worried about you. The security said you barred them from coming into the company. How could you do that to your family? What is wrong with you?!"
"How did you get in?" Ray raised his head from the keyboard and asked his sister.
"Wh– what?!" Sharon was totally flabbergasted. She couldn’t believe what she was hearing.
At the gate earlier, the security men refused to let her in. Not until she called Frank who spoke with the chief security officer was she allowed in. She had thought her brother would react differently when he sees her, after all, she had been his most beloved person since young. She didn’t expect he would ask her this with a plain look on his face like he was addressing a stranger.
"What are you talking about?" She asked again.
"Sharon, what are you doing here?" Ray pushed his seat back and got up. He walked towards the floor-to-ceiling window and stopped to look at the dark city with sparkling lights coming from the tall buildings.
"Ray, it’s me, your older sister–"
Ray turned to look at her. His hair looked disheveled, and his white shirt, although looked clean and well-ironed, was left flying over his black trousers.
