The mood in the Nike family mansion was somber. The grandiose hall, usually filled with the echoes of laughter and the bustling activities of the household, now felt like a tomb. Luis had nothing to say about the case in court. What else would she expect from a street girl like Katherine? Senior Nike, a figure of formidable authority and pride, sat in his armchair, his eyes blazing with a mixture of fury and disappointment. Romy and Cindy stood before him, their faces pale and drawn. They had expected a triumphant return, basking in the glow of their victory over Sebastian. Instead, they faced the wrath of their patriarch. “How could you be so careless?” Senior Nike’s voice was a low growl, filled with disdain. “We lost everything because you two failed to see through Katherine’s lies!” Romy shifted uncomfortably, his usual bravado nowhere to be seen. “We… we didn’t know, Grandpa. Katherine seemed so convincing. We thought she had everything under control.” “Under control?”
The once-grand Nike family house had seen better days. Its former glory was now overshadowed by the financial troubles that had befallen its residents.Senior Nike, Romy, and Cindy were huddled in the dimly lit living room, their faces drawn with worry. The weight of their predicament pressed heavily upon them, each lost in their thoughts of how to reclaim their lost power and prestige.It was then that the doorbell rang, echoing through the silent house.“Who is there?” Juliana, irritated by the intrusion, answered the door. And just as she opened the door, there stood Brian Henry, a man they had all but written off after a bitter past, and his involvement in Katherine's schemes had been exposed.His reputation was tarnished, and his presence was far from welcome.“Hello Juliana.” Brian said, smiling. “Can I come in?”"What do you want, Brian?" Juliana snapped, her patience worn thin by the recent events.Immediately she saw Brian, the voice from the recorder during the court case r
Brian’s eyes gleamed with a mixture of excitement and cold calculation as he laid out his plans. The Nike family gathered around, their expressions a blend of skepticism and reluctant hope."First and foremost," Brian began, his voice steady, "We need to gather intelligence. Sebastian's rise to power was swift, but it left him with a lot of loose ends. We'll start by exploiting those. I have contacts within Prime Enterprises who owe me favors. They can provide us with inside information on Sebastian's dealings."Brian had been speaking to some people in the Prime Enterprise recently to work with him. Even when they wish to, they get scared they might lose their job if Sebatian finds out.He offers them so much for them to join up with him to bring the Sebatian reign to an end. And some of them accepted the offer.Senior Nike nodded slowly, his skepticism giving way to cautious interest. "And what kind of information are we looking for?""Anything that can discredit him," Brian replied
Brian's plan was set in motion with the cold precision of a seasoned strategist. As the Nike family dispersed to their respective tasks, a sense of foreboding settled over Prime Enterprises. The storm was coming, and Abigail Nelson was the first target. Abigail sat in her office, the skyline of the city sprawling out before her. Her mind was occupied with the latest merger proposal when an anonymous envelope was placed on her desk by her assistant. “What could this be?”She was curious, she opened it and her eyes widened in shock. Photographs and documents tumbled out, revealing a secret she had buried for years, a past indiscretion, a youthful mistake that could shatter her carefully curated reputation. She felt a chill run down her spine. At that moment, her thoughts raced as she tried to comprehend the implications. Who knew? Who could have found out? Her mind immediately went to someone else, but she dismissed the idea. He wouldn't betray her like this. But if not him, then wh
William Prime was a man driven by ambition, even though he had always been loyal to Sebatian, his loyalty was tempered by a desire for greater power and influence. Brian knew this well, and he intended to exploit it to its fullest. His plan to isolate William began with a series of subtle, yet impactful maneuvers.“Hey Maxwell, I would love to discuss something with you on the phone.”Brian started by reaching out to William's closest confidants within Prime Enterprises. He knew that jealousy and ambition were powerful motivators, and he aimed to sow seeds of doubt about Sebastian's leadership. Discreetly, he fed them information suggesting that Sebastian's rise had overshadowed William's potential, hinting that William deserved more recognition and authority. Word began to spread, and soon, whispers of dissent echoed through the halls of Prime Enterprises. William, though initially dismissive, couldn't ignore the growing murmurs. His colleagues' subtle comments and the sudden prai
Brian watched with satisfaction. His plan was unfolding perfectly. William's growing discontent and the public perception of discord were tools he could wield to further destabilize Sebastian's control.In the days following the event, William found himself still inundated with offers and opportunities. The seeds of doubt and ambition Brian had sown were bearing fruit. William began to seriously consider leaving Prime Enterprises to forge his own path, feeling unappreciated and stifled.“This is truly what I had wanted. I can't wait for that flunk to be reduced to nothing!” Senior Nike was enjoying the update of Brian's plan.Romy and Cindy were mainly involved in passing malicious messages to the public about Sebatian and his uncle. “I think the people in the Enterprise are beginning to really feel the fallout that's about to happen between Sebastian and his uncle.”Meanwhile, Sebatian was grappling with the fallout. He reached out to William, hoping to mend their fractured relations
“Juliana, what’s going on?” Sebastian asked, concerned about lacing his voice."Sebastian, I need to tell you something crucial," Juliana began, her voice urgent.“The person plotting all these issues between you and William is Brian."Sebastian's grip tightened on the phone. "Brian? How dare him do this? How did you find out?"Juliana took a deep breath. “He came over to the house, and met with Grandpa Nike, Cindy and Romy. They had a discussion on how to bring you down. Brian's been subtly manipulating both you and William, planting seeds of doubt and creating friction. He’s been orchestrating everything from the shadows, including the issues Abigail faced. Brian's connections and influence have allowed him to orchestrate a series of events that made it look like internal conflicts."Sebastian felt a mixture of anger and betrayal. "So he was behind Abigail's predicament too?"William Prime was trying to get who it was that Sebatian was speaking to on the phone. All that he could see
It was another fizzling day in the Enterprise. Sebastian, who was bent on getting Brian's allies in the Enterprise first, sat in his office, pouring over the collected evidence with William Prime and Abigail. For the past few hours, his investigation team had uncovered enough to expose Brian's closest accomplices within Prime Enterprises. Sebastian knew that striking fear into Brian’s network would weaken his position and force him to make a mistake.“My President, we have to move quickly. The longer we wait, the more time Brian has to cover his tracks," Abigail advised, her eyes scanning the documents provided by the investigation team spread across the table.William Prime nodded in agreement. "We need to make an example of his accomplices to show everyone that treachery won’t be tolerated."Sebastian stood up, his decision made. "Let's call another meeting immediately."Those in the senior management board were ready to also fish out those who might be helping Brian in one way or
