He grabbed the phone and hurled it against the wall, watching it shatter into pieces. He sank to the floor, burying his head in his hands. He felt completely alone, and he didn't know how to get himself out of this mess. In that moment, he realized that his anger and resentment were only hurting him. He knew he had to find a way to let go of his negative feelings, but he didn't know where to start. Suddenly, a memory flashed through his mind. It was of his grandfather, James, who had always been a source of wisdom and guidance in his life. He remembered something James had once said to him: "Sometimes the hardest thing in life is to let go of the things that are hurting us."Dax was feeling the weight of the world on his shoulders.

Dax took a deep breath and considered his answer carefully. "I'm still processing everything that's happened, and it's not easy. But I'm committed to doing what's best for the company, and that means working with Seamus. I'm not going to pretend that everything is fine, but I'm willing to put the past behind us and focus on the future. I know that won't be easy, but I'm willing to try."Roger studied him for a moment, and then nodded. "I appreciate your honesty, Dax. It takes a lot of courage to admit that you're still struggling.

That's the kind of leadership we need right now."Dax felt a sense of relief, knowing that he had gained some of Roger's trust back. But he knew there was still a long way to go. He decided to be open and honest from now on, no matter how difficult it was. It was the only way to move forward."Let's talk about the shares."Roger opened the meeting by laying out his of

He lurched forward, his blood pumping with adrenaline. "But I'm your husband, how could you invite such a man into your apartment?"Allora pushed him."I would ask the same thing about you.

Dax felt foolish, he thought that love was more important than money, it turned out that he had been foolish to believe that Allora would accept him for who he was. It backfired.

But it worked out for his good.He brushed his eyes. "Your parents were killed by the loan sharks and you were missing from your carriage.""They only preyed after poor people.""Yes but this was an entirely different story.

His eyes widened at the smashed Rolls Royce, the doors wide open and the marks for the bodies."How do you know that I'm the lost heir

What time are you available to take lessons?""5 o'clock." He spoke. "I have a roster for everyday.""Aye, 5 o'clock. I don't think that'd be necessary.""You give guitar lessons and you don't understand the concepts of time management?"Shannon squawked. "Of course I do. See you there."Dax frowned impatiently. "Thank you for your time, miss O'Malley.""You're welcome."Dax lowered the phone and sighed. "That was difficult." He couldn't wait to start learning."Get me a guitar." He said and the errand boy nodded leaving.He sighed. He couldn't get anything done just anticipating Allora's return. There had to be a way to solve this amicably.Shannon O'Malley arrived. "Shannon, I'm here to teach the master a lesson." She said.The guard eyed her. "What do you have in your case?""A whole bag uh poison porcu

"Mr. Edmund, this is Mr. Johnson," the voice on the other end of the line said. "I've been thinking about our meeting, and I've decided to go ahead with the partnership. I think it's a good opportunity for both of our companies." Dax couldn't believe his ears. "That's wonderful news!" he said."Indeed. I cannot wait to work with you." He beamed.Dax kept his composure.

As Seamus offered to sponsor the party, Dax couldn't help but feel suspicious. He knew that Seamus had ulterior motives, and he suspected that the offer of sponsorship was just a ploy to put him in debt. Dax didn't want to be beholden to Seamus, and he certainly didn't want to give him any leverage over him.HDax narrowed his eyes, his jaw clenched. "I don't want your money, Seamus. I don't want anything from you. You've done enough damage."Seamus's smile faltered, and for a moment, his facade of calm composure slipped away. "I know I made mistakes, Dax. I've been trying to make things right. I just want to help."Dax scoffed. "Your help is tainted. You can't buy your way back into my good graces. You should know that by now."Seamus's face was pale, and he looked truly distraught. "You're right. I know I can't buy your forgiveness. But please don't shut me out completely. I'm not the same person I was before, and I want to prove that to you."Dax shook his head. "I'm done talking a

"I'm so sorry, Maureen. I never meant to hurt you or Dax. I was just worried about the future of the family business, and I made a terrible mistake." Seamus said, his eyes brimming with regret.Maureen gazed at him coldly. "Worried? You lied to everyone and dragged Dax's name through the mud. If you were worried, you should have talked to us instead of trying to destroy him."Shannon stepped forward, her eyes blazing. "Dad, I can't believe you did this. Dax is the best thing that's ever happened to me, and you tried to ruin his life. How could you?" She glared at him, her voice shaking with anger.Seamus hung his head, the shame written all over his face. "I know, Shannon. I know I messed up. But I want to make things right. I want to do whatever it takes to earn your forgiveness, both of you."Maureen and Shannon exchanged a look, their faces etched with doubt. Dax had been the perfect husband and father, and Seamus had betrayed them in the worst way. Could they ever forgive him?"It

Shannon's anger toward her father was mixed with a deep sense of shame. She felt embarrassed that she had believed the lies that Seamus had told, and she felt even worse that she had considered telling Dax to give up and just let her father win. But as she thought about it more, she realized that Dax had been the one who had been honest and fair, and that her father had been the one who was acting dishonorably. She began to see that she had been blinded by her loyalty to her father, and that Dax had been the one who was truly honorable all along."I'm so sorry for everything that happened, Dax," Shannon said. "I never meant to hurt you or make you feel like you weren't good enough. I was just blinded by my loyalty to my father, and I didn't see things clearly. Please, will you forgive me?" Dax smiled at her. "Shannon, there's nothing to forgive. I understand how hard this must have been for you, and I admire you for doing the right thing.Dax was surprised when he received an invitat

"You'll see that no one will want to do business with you," Seamus continued. "No one will want to use your platform, and you'll be ruined."Dax felt like the walls were closing in on him. He knew he had to do something to defend himself. "You can't do this," he said, his voice shaking. "It's not fair. It's not right."Seamus just shrugged. "It's business, Dax. And you're in my way."Dax felt like he was going to explode."I'm not going to let you ruin me," Dax said, trying to sound confident. "I'll fight back. I'll show everyone that you're the one who's lying. I'll expose you for the fraud that you are."Seamus laughed, a cruel, mocking laugh. "You think you can take me on? You're nothing but a small fry. You're out of your league here."Dax's hands were shaking with anger. He felt like he was about to lose control."Just watch me," he said, his voice low and dangerous.It was true, Dax couldn't bring himself to hate Seamus.

A few months ago, Dax's team had just launched the CollabSpace app. They had been working hard to get the word out, and it seemed to be paying off. They had already gained over a million users, and the number was growing every day. Dax was thrilled - this was the success he had been dreaming of. But then he started to hear about Seamus' campaign of rumors. He was worried that it was starting to take a toll on his user numbers. How could he fight back?Dax decided that he needed to set the record straight. He started doing interviews and writing blog posts, explaining the truth about CollabSpace and debunking the rumors. He also tried to focus on improving the platform, to show people that it was worth using. And little by little, he started to see his user numbers rise again. But Seamus wasn't giving up. Seamus still had the power of money behind him. And he decided to use it. He started to buy up advertising space on all the major social media platforms, to promote his own platform.

She was clearly troubled, and Dax could tell something was bothering her. "What's wrong?" he asked."I need to talk to you about your new project," Shannon said, looking down at her hands. "I'm not sure it's a good idea."Dax's heart sank. He had hoped that Shannon would be supportive of his idea. "What do you mean?" he asked, trying to keep his voice calm."I just don't think it's going to work," Shannon said, her voice shaking. "I don't want to see you get your hopes up, only to have them crushed."Dax sat down, feeling deflated."Why don't you think it will work?" Dax asked, trying to keep his voice level. "What are your specific concerns?"Shannon hesitated, then took a deep breath. "I just don't think it's feasible," she said. "It sounds like a lot of work, and I'm not sure it will pay off in the end. I know you're passionate about it, but I'm worried that you're setting yourself up for disappointment."Dax looked at her, trying to hide his disappointment. "But what if it does wor
