The moment I step inside the restaurant, I quickly spotted the person I'm meeting today.Denise Lowell.She is sitting by the window and her posture while sitting is straight yet relaxed. She is also exuding a quiet confidence although she is not doing anything extra at all.

Evan even went as far as to say that if anyone can restore the Centennial Cybersecurity's fallen reputation, Denise Lowell can definitely do that job right.And now, Denise Lowell i

Since that day, everyone are starting to get curious what will truly happen to the company that once dominated the tech industry when its management were still good and free from any corruption. But still, I really don't care about their opinions. The world can make a lot of speculations all they want. Every day, I am aware that the media outlets are alll running wild with theories and stories about what will happen to Centennial Cybersecurity in the future. Many industry analysts are also debating whether the company can really recover from its past scandals and embezzlement charges. The online forums are also flooding with opinions about the company. There are some who are predicting its future failure while the others are hoping for its fresh start. But again, I don't care about them. I also don't care about their opinions and analysis. And neither my team cares about their words.At this point, we already learned that other people's opinion are all useless for us. Their opinions

It's been five days straight since my meeting with Mr. Harold and Mrs. Stewart. During those days, our Magnus X is still flourishing in the market. Many investors are still trying to reach out to me. And unexpectedly, no one tries to assert any dominance to us after Patrick Wesley got arrested.As for tonight, I hear the loud sound of notification in my phone that indicates I received an email. When I checked it, I can see that it comes from Mrs. Stewart. I blinked my eyes when I see the files attached to her email. It is an official contract that shows the final acquisition of the Centennial Cybersecurity. Mrs. Stewart also said that I am free to send her an email just in case I have something I want to inquire or change in the contract.After reading the contract, I stretch my arms and tries to sink in this new reality in my heart. The Centennial Cybersecurity is one of the largest cybersecurity firms in the country for years now. And in just a blink of an eye, that company is now

When the hotel doors quietly closed behind Chandler, Mrs. Stewart turn her gaze back towards Mr. Harold. The older man remains seating near the window while his fingers are tapping lightly on the saucer of his teacup. His expression looks unreadable. But for Mrs. Stewart who had known him for a long time, it is enough for her to recognize the slight tension in his posture."Do you really think he will make it?" Mrs. Stewart calmly asked.Mr. Harold gives her a look but she just rolls her eyes at him."I am not trying to belittle that young man. What I'm asking is your true opinion about it." Mrs. Stewart clarified.Mr. Harold did not answer her question immediately. Instead, he takes a slow sip of his tea first. Once he put the cup back to its saucer, he slowly answers her question. "I have two opinions about it." Mr. Harold said."Oh?" Mrs. Stewart reacted while raising a brow. "And what is it?""First, as a businessman. If Chandler fails this one, then he simply proves not only to

It's already one in the morning but I am still sitting in front of my computer. I keep staring at my computer screen in front of me. The cursor in it is blinking on the blank screen as if it's just waiting for me to decide what should I do next. That's because the compiled documents, spread sheets, and illegal evidence we gathered against Patrick Wesley are all ready for release.For two days straight, I gathered a lot of proofs of his crimes together with Robert and Andrew. These are composed of his illegal financial dealings, frauds, faked identities, massive embezzlements and secret under-the-table agreements that will surely destroy his entire career once it gets released to the public. If I wanted to, I can just used this information to bargain with him and make him suffer longer. Or maybe watch him beg in front of him and apologize for being rude to me. But honestly, he is not worth the effort. Patrick Wesley is now a relic of the past. He is just clinging to the power that is
