The screen loaded quickly.
Gray leaned in slightly as a profile popped up.

Gray's eyes narrowed.
"Leonard Morris…" he murmured.
He clicked into the reference section, and there it was in plain text.
Relationship to Referrer: Nephew
Gray stared at the screen for a long moment, letting that sink in.
So that was it.
Will wasn't hired for his qualifications. He wasn't promoted because he was capable or experienced. Instead, he was picked because he had a relationship with someone on top.
"That explains a lot," Gray muttered, fingers slowly curling into a fist on the desk.
