Michael spent the next morning doing damage control. Conference calls with key board members. Reassurances to nervous investors. Carefully worded statements to the press about "internal governance reviews" that meant absolutely nothing and everything at once.By noon, he was exhausted. Not from the work, but from the constant performance. Every conversation required calibration. Every word needed to be measured against how it might be used against him later.His assistant buzzed.

Hughes had founded three biotech startups, sold two for massive profits, and currently ran a company that specialized in experimental treatments for neurological conditions.The kind of treatments that existed in the gray area between cutting-edge medicine and regulatory gambling.The receptionist showed Michael into a conference room with floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking Manhattan. Hughes was already there, standing at the glass with his back to the door."Mr. Crawford. Thank you for coming." Hughes turned, extended his hand.
