After obtaining pertinent details, he called and forwarded the information to Lucinda via email.
Lucinda gracefully typed on the keyboard, her fingertips dancing with precision as she entered the email password and reviewed the fax document.
When Nala was just over 10 years old, a crisis struck her fathers company, resulting in his arrest.
The information revealed a mole within the company who orchestrated financial fraud, leading to severe tax evasion. The implicated person resigned voluntarily, Leaving Nalas father, the Legal representative, to shoulder the responsibility.
