Chapter 20 Summary
In the basement of the Met building, Jeffrey Kruger sits beside IT manager Scott Gray, learning how to navigate the company’s email servers. Scott explains the hierarchy of folders and distribution lists, warning that sensitive emails must be deleted from every recipient’s folder if they are to be fully removed. Though disappointed by the complication, Kruger presses ahead, insisting on privacy as he begins his search. His aim is clear—find Jenkins’s emails and erase anything that could draw suspicion.
Elsewhere, journalist Jennifer Bennett follows Javon Morris after his exhausting press conference and persuades him to join her for coffee. Their conversation softens the edge of Morris’s day, revealing personal histories—his long career in the FBI, her roots in investigative journalism, and their differing paths into the case. Jennifer admits she only has one more day before returning to Chicago, but she hopes her meeting with GenaSeed’s VP Sandra Brown will yield something useful. Javon doubts it but asks her to share anything she uncovers. The two part with plans to reconnect later over dinner, a spark of personal intrigue flickering between them beneath the shadow of the unfolding case.
