He stared at the email, the words a litany of blatant falsehoods. The proposal, his idea, his work, was now presented as her own. The gall of it! He felt a cold rage begin to spread through him. His body was stiff, his jaw locked. He felt a sharp, cutting pain behind his eyes.

He stood and kicked his chair across the room with a violent sweep of his leg. The chair crashed against the wall, breaking something inside him. He went to his desk, took a deep, shuddering breath and started to draft a response. He deleted it all. He paced the room, his thoughts racing, and started another response, then deleted it all again.
