“Sorry, I should have told you. Everything has just been so busy, I didn’t even think about it.” “It’s okay. I know all your current projects,” I reassured him. He placed a kiss to my knuckles. “Lockwood Entertainment has a few movies that are nominated for different things, the biggest being Westwood Lane.” I stared at him in wide-eyed shock. “You did Westwood Lane?” He chuckled. “Yeah.

He uttered. “What do you mean by that?” I asked. “Nothing.” He smiled. “Come on, let’s open our lockers together or else someone will come here to give us a warning for not following what is said to.” he added. “Aye.” I answered.

He didn't look at the empty boardroom or the empty cabinets. He headed straight for the door.

Lorenzo frowned. “Good. Then tell us how you know Xavier Lockwood and why you wanted to see him so desperately,” Ross said in a calm voice.

And what does the cryptic message mean?” Ross pressed. “I.. I.. it's nothing, I swear. Mr Xavier and I are just honest gentlemen doing business together.”

I took the keys to one of Aziel’s matte-black sports cars and drove myself, my mind calculating the volume of capital required to survive a short-sell squeeze of this magnitude. Only one entity on the eastern seaboard had enough liquid cash to absorb Athena's attack and reverse the stock plunge. The Lockwood Conglomerate.
