Still, it’s quiet. A good place to hide when you’re on week six of your emotional crisis and pretending you’re A-okay.
Two days left.
Two days until I can go back to my normal life where I don’t have to see Corin Saelinger’s stupidly attractive face every single day and pretend I’m not thinking about how he looks when he cums inside me.
Stop it.
You’re supposed to be working.
Right.
Work.
I’m sorting through physical files in one of the ancient filing cabinets when I find a folder labeled “Board Minutes - Archive” shoved in the back.
Inside are printouts of old email threads, the kind that get printed and filed away when lawyers want a paper trail that can’t be digitally altered.
Riveting stuff.
This is exactly how you pictured spending your afternoon.
I flip through them anyway, because apparently I hate myself.
The first few are standard corporate nonsense. Meeting agendas, budget approvals, the kind of bureaucratic minutiae that makes my eyes glaze over even though it’s literally my job to care about this stuff.
Then I see Corin’s name.
AndDiana Castellane’sname.
And the date: five years ago, three days before the scandal broke.
Shit.
Maybe I’ll finally learn the truth about what happened.
If Corin lied...

Subject: RE: Castellane Global Relief Fund - Financial Irregularities
======================
I’ve reviewed the preliminary audit findings and I’m formally objecting to our continued involvement with CGRF. The evidence of fund diversion is substantial. Shell companies, inflated administrative costs, grants that can’t be traced to legitimate recipients. We need to blow the whistle immediately and sever all advisory ties.
Continuing this relationship exposes us to massive liability and, more importantly, damages the civil-society partners who’ve been working in good faith. Including Leena Chowdhury’s legal clinic.
I’m recommending we report to regulators today and issue a public statement. This is the only ethically defensible path forward.
======================
I read it twice. Then three times.
My hands are actually shaking.
