“Now, what the hell am I lookin’ at?” “A ledger containing current club financials, business contacts, and laundering sources.” “Jesus, Minus. There a specific reason such a hot item is currently in my home?” “I had to get it as far away from home as possible and I couldn’t think of a better place than here in your safe. I’m gonna talk to Zaius about posting a couple of patches here until all of this blows over, and I’m going to need you to get some more of the younger guys around here up to speed.

“Ms. Wagner, what exactly is going on with you two? One moment, you cancel the wedding. The next, you want it as planned.

What am I supposed to do in the middle of the night?” I felt a little guilty for causing trouble, but it was not my fault. “I apologize for the inconvenience. The wedding between Zach and me is indeed canceled, and I will not ask for a refund. As for him wanting to proceed with it, he can place a new order.” “Won't he kill me, then?”

Three months later, the company had fully adapted to the new Striver Points System. The relaxed atmosphere in the office, occasionally mixed with gossip and complaints, had vanished.

"I think that she's trying to tell us we got it right and that's it, that's her name. Nova. It's a beautiful name, for a beautiful woman." Zane breathes out a sigh of relief.

His phone buzzed again. His assistant was on the other end, voice tight with urgency. "Mr. Wynn, 60% of Wynn Group's shares have just been transferred out." Jasper pulled himself together and rushed to the office. When he pushed open the conference room doors, the board members were already waiting, and not one of them looked sympathetic.

I didn't expect to uncover this much. He turned to Marvin, calm and certain. "Your financial records show that you recently paid a large sum to a PR company. This company is known for manipulating online public opinion. The timing matches exactly the day after Eric was fired.
