While Nicolas was setting up the second phase of his elaborate scheme to bury the Tyris family alive, Charlotte was working hard to make sure that the instructions that he gave to her were being carried out as soon as possible.Of course, as she was carrying them out quickly, she was also very meticulous in her actions, as she did not want to make any single mistake, careless or not.She knew how crucial this was to Nicolas, so she had to put in her very best effort to fulfill his instructions.Charlotte did not want to delegate this job to anybody else as well.She could easily get her assistant or secretary to compile a noteworthy and trustworthy list for her, and could present it to Nicolas as her work, but she closed off her mind to doing such.She vowed that she would repay Nicolas’ kindness’ with her hard work, and that was a promise she vowed to keep no matter what.*Three days passed in the blink of an eye, and Charlotte had been hard at work for those three days.During the
The business meeting between Charlotte and Richard Monroe did not take long at all, contrary to what Richard thought at first.When the meeting between the two of them concluded, Richard was all over himself with joy.A million dollars!That was an astronomical amount of money to the media company.Even when they were at the peak of their business, they had never ever made a fraction of the money at all, and yet, such a huge amount of money fell into their hands!Richard, although blinded by the large amount of money did not lose his head, and still maintained a small façade of calmness.“You wouldn’t drive all the way to the suburbs just to offer me a million dollars to report some news.” Richard asked, a calm and wise look in his aged eyes as he spoke.He wasn’t going to be blinded by the illusion of a million dollars that easily.Charlotte laughed out loud, shocking Richard, but internally, her personal opinion of Richard went up by a lot.He didn’t lose his head over the mention o
The matters and tasks on Charlotte ends were completed before the week ran out, and the media companies that she visited personally all agreed to her proposal.She wasn’t surprised at all by their compliance. After all, most of the media companies she picked were on the verge of bankruptcy and needed a substantial amount of money.The one million dollars she offered each of them was too much to refuse, and the condition—that they report what Nicolas wanted, when he wanted—was a small price to pay for a chance at survival.The money was going to change the course of their media companies, and there was no visible downside to it.It was no wonder that they all picked the one million dollars.It was exhilarating.She knew that the Tyris family, a major player in the city's business world, would soon feel the weight of the media against them. Nicolas's strategy was clear: destabilize the Tyris family from every angle, and the media was a crucial part of that plan.Charlotte had completed
Nicolas stirred from his slumber in his lavishly adorned chamber, as the sun bright light filtered through the magnificent curtains.Lavish silk sheets cascaded around him as he stretched, the morning sunlight dancing on the intricate patterns of the Persian rug beneath his feet.With a lazy yawn, he rose from his pricey king sized bed, greeted by the soft embrace of his surroundings—a sanctuary of luxury and comfort.He took a quick glance at the antique clock in the corner of his lavish room, and saw that it was already 2:41 p.m., which was quite late in the afternoon, and a look of surprise appeared on his exquisitely handsome face.Approximately thirteen hours had passed since his phone call with Detective Oliver, and Nicolas was stunned at how long it had been since the last phone call he made.He had not gotten a good night sleep in a long while now, as he had been working hard on different fronts to exact his retribution on the Tyris family, but he did not expect it to be this
The dim rays of the sunlight penetrated the windows of Nicolas’ luxurious bedroom, illuminating the room and Nicolas’ handsome face as well.Nicolas turned slightly and moved his face away from the rays that were pouring directly on his face. He tried to go back to sleep, but being the diligent person that he was, he knew that it was futile.Letting out a small sigh, he stood up from his soft king sized bed in a fluid motion, his piercing blue eyes fixated on the pricey wall clock.It read 7:19 a.m., similar to what Nicolas expected.Nicolas plopped down on one of his plush sofas, and although he was preparing to go on with his daily morning routine, his mind was preoccupied with thoughts of his plans against the Tyris family.With four of his phases in motion already, Nicolas decided to pull back and opted to wait while his plans were being materialized. Being in a rush was not going to bring the best of the results after all, especially one that he desired.Not to mention, he had be
As soon as Fred stepped through the magnificent entrance, which was embellished with delicate gold details, the air of luxury and sophistication in the café hit him like a wave. Tucked away in the fashionable cityscape, the sumptuous cafe radiated sophistication and luxury.The inside of the café was a symphony of luxurious furnishings, such as tables with marble tops and velvet-upholstered seats, all softly lit by crystal chandeliers that dangled from the tall ceiling.The air was filled with the melodious strains of live classical music, providing a backdrop for the whispered conversations of the affluent clientele dining in the café.Wealthy patrons, clothed in designer attire lounged comfortably, savoring the delicious and finger licking good desserts meticulously crafted by world-renowned pastry chefs. Delicate macaroni and decadent chocolate truffles tempt the palate, accompanied by the finest selection of rare teas and exotic coffees.Through the floor-to-ceiling windows, a pan
Fred exited the pricey café and walked leisurely towards his sleek Mercedes Benz. Nonetheless, there was a variety of thoughts swirling in his head, but the most prominent one being how ruthless Nicolas could be.As he recalled the fall of their Argos organization and the exile of their previous boss, he was extremely glad on Lex’s Argos behalf that his situation ended somewhat peacefully with him and his son being exiled; as from the knowledge he recently acquired, it could have been way worse.Fred let out a sigh as he entered his sleek car. There was no need for him to think about what happened in the past. It was better for him to focus on what was happening now, as well as complete the tasks that were assigned to him.With his thoughts properly organized, Fred pulled out of the parking lot with what could be called an expert driving and sped towards the headquarters of the Clinton Group.*Charlotte reclined leisurely into the plush office seat, a lot of documents neatly piled up
The next day was a busy day for Charlotte, as it was finally time for her to enact the first phase of the elaborate scheme that would completely sink the Tyris family into the ground and make them a memory of the past.As for what the first stage of the plan was going to be, with ten trustworthy media companies sponsored and brought back from the edge of bankruptcy by them, it was extremely obvious by now what they planned to do first.The media.The media was without a doubt one of the most powerful entity in the world, as well as the most powerful entity in the mind of the public.The residents of Stormwind City all had access to the media through various channels such as a smartphone, a laptop, a tablet, desktop computers, TVs, radios and many more channels.As such, anything the media reported always left a deep impression in the mind of the citizens, and the most important thing a large business empire such as the one the Tyris family built was without a doubt their reputation.U
