"We currently hold eighteen percent of Agate Entertainment's total shares," Axton reports, his voice sharp and professional. "Leif's Aurora Entertainment owns another twenty-two percent. If we acquire another ten percent from the minor holders, you will become the largest shareholder. You will have full controlling interest." A hostile takeover. I let out a low, dark sound from the back of my throat. I look out the window, watching the cars move like ants on the tarmac down below.

“Mr. Cross? Ms. Chen? We just received this—from Cross Industries’ board of directors.” Sophia took it from him, her hands trembling as she read the words printed in bold letters across the top: TAKEOVER NOTICE. “Effective immediately, Cross Industries is initiating a hostile takeover of Chen Couture. All assets, designs, and intellectual property will be transferred to Cross Industries ownership. Any attempt to resist will result in immediate legal action.” She looked up at Alexander, her eyes wide with shock. “What is this? Did you know about this?” He shook his head, his face pale with anger. “No. The board—they must have made a deal with the syndicate. The

“Victor has made his move against Vale Industries as well.” Adrian's words sliced through the tense silence in the boardroom.

"I just did not imagine that the plan will be like that. It will bring nothing but too much trouble. I want some, you know, 'personal entertainment.' Not as boring as buying stock in some Hermann-owned company using a fake identity like this one." "Ah, so you still do not get the idea, huh?" Katherine let out a sluggish sigh upon hearing his answer, successfully creating a frown in his brows. "Look.

"Jackson, we're getting an unusual spike in transfers on channel B-21. There's a string of calls reserved for tonight by unknown callers. They're making some sort of financial restructuring deal. I don't know yet, but it might be a hostile takeover bid." My heart fell. "You mean to tell me they're going to attempt a hostile takeover?" I asked. All signs point to, Jackson.
