Transparent

The transparent capsule lift in the lobby is the first of its kind in the city.

The business magnate is complimented for his eclectic taste. He glides through with his beautiful wife and captures media attention.

A year later, it becomes his undoing as dark secrets spill out in the open. He is in police custody. The wife leaves. Media has a gala time, once again.

People like him should stick to the sophistication of wood and dark leather, rather than see-through glass.

I ask my architect to change plans for the new hotel. I need business, not scandals.
