The energy inside Nova Tech's headquarters was alive, like static before a storm. Today wasn't just another day on the calendar, it was the beginning of something far bigger.
The grand launch was approaching fast, and it would be the moment Nova Tech officially stepped onto the world stage.
Even though the sun had barely settled over the skyline of Novan City, the lobby was already full. More than a hundred and fifty newly hired employees stood in clusters across the polished marble floor, all of them freshly recruited from different industries.
Their name tags were still crisp, and their faces carried a mixture of nerves, awe, and excitement.
Some were whispering about the tech Nova Tech had promised. Others, about the rumors surrounding its elusive founder.
"Hey, did you hear anything about Ethan Cole showing up today?" a guy near the back asked, pushing up his glasses.
