“We won’t.”
“You swear?”
“I swear on every boardroom I’ve ever walked into and every deal I’ve ever closed.”
He nods once, tension bleeding out of his shoulders. “Then we keep moving forward. The Singapore closing is in three days, and after that, David’s money is locked in. We get through this, we get the capital, we expand. And then we kick him to the curb.”
