Investigating Mr. Hawkes was supposed to be easy. Work undercover in his office, catch him stealing company millions, then lock that Herculean himbo away and launch the key into space. I even concocted the perfect excuse for keeping him in my sights: become his sworn office rival.
That’s where our mutually malicious arrangement got... complicated. I didn’t mind losing “broadest shoulders” or “fanciest car” to Samuel.
