Chapter 101
Holloway stayed quiet for a while, getting all the information he needed to attack Roman. A week after the merger, he made his first aggressive move against Roman. Crestfield filed a regulatory complaint against the Walcott Merger, claiming anti-competitive behaviour. The activities of the merger were put on hold, investigations had to begin into the merger, to find out how Roman faked data. “Are you seeing this sir?” His secretary asked him. “I have.” He replied. “I received the letter yesterday.” He told her. He was however very calm about it. “Do you know what this means? It could ruin the merger and the company's image.” She argued, thinking he would finally take it seriously. “I know.” He replied to her, still being the same way he was. “He isn't even taking this seriously.” She told herself. “Is there anything you want me to do to you? We must mitigate this as soon as possible.” She said to him. “Just continue with your usual duties, Sarah.” He told her. “Forget about tha

“That's exactly my point.” Holloway screamed. “They lied about their shared power and my values are the correct one.” “I trust they're ways of knowing these things.” Roman said calmly. “My data can be proven anywhere.” He then turned to Holloway, facing him surely. “Now, let me ask you, who gave these discreet data to you, Vicky?” He asked Holloway. Holloway was shocked. “What are you talking about?” Holloway, already distressed, began to argue.“I'd like to share with all of us here that Mr. Holloway here tried to compromise my company by sending in a spy.” Roman exposed. “We caught her in a matter of hours and knew everything Holloway had planned, so we used it against him, we fed him the lies he presented to the regulatory board, so we knew everything before it even started.” Roman kept saying, exposing Holloway even more.“That's a lie. I don't know what you're talking about. Who even is Vicky?” Holloway asked, still trying to play the ignorant card after he had been caught.

“Alright.” Roman said to him after the silence. “First, you'll give a public apology, retraction of the legal dispute formally. Second, you have to affirm Lena's rightful leadership. Tell the world you were wrong to treat her the way you did and you will let love lead.” Roman's terms were just humiliation, they were rather a way Roman wanted actual peace between them. Readily, Leo agreed, although the pride was hurt. It was against his ego, but for the past few years, his ego had only given him the worst results. It was indeed time for a change. Roman gives a soft smile, but doesn't say anything else. Back home, he breaks the news to his wife, Lena. “Your grandfather is going to make amends.” He told her. She was confused for a moment, not understanding what he meant, so he had to explain to her. When he did, she was shocked. She couldn't believe it. She was, however , happy. If this was true after all, it would mean a new age of peace and reconciliation in her family. Deep down

It took an additional two days before Roman made his final decision on the deal. While Elara worked in the office, she was alerted that Roman was there to see her. “Let him in, let him in!” She said with a lot of expectations. “You took a while to check back.” She told him. “I thought you forgot.” “I never forget.” He replied to her. “I just wanted to know everything I could about the deal before giving feedback.” He explained. “Okay, fair enough.” She replied. “So what do you think?” “Well, I like the initiative to say the least.” He replied to her. “However, I would like to make some changes in the arrangement.” He added. “I don't just want to be a partner, a second tier company that can be a partner, but I think I'm above that.” He explained. “What do you want to be then?” She asked him. I want the Walcott group to be fully involved.” He replied to her. “I should have the ability to control operational activity from the start, not just be a dormant, wait for response part

Roman left quietly that day, but the next day was for real action. He called on Marcus again, but this time, for work, rather than talk. “What's the update?” He asked Marcus, regarding the work he was handed the day before. “I traced the exact proxy companies, those who are especially buying as a disguise.” He told Roman as he laid the names forward. Roman went through them. “This is good.” He told Marcus as he observed. “What's the next option, sir? New companies are buying every minute.” He asked Roman. “With this, we have enough evidence that Holloway is coming at us. At the same time, we can't engage on our own. My plan is a corporate one, so I need other board members on deck.” He explained to Marcus. He always hated it when his decision had to be tied to the board's knowledge. That was a disadvantage to him, especially when he wanted to make quick moves. He however wasn't going to wallow in the pain. He set up the urgent meeting as soon as possible. In the next 30 minute
Chapter 106
The next morning, Carlos calls Roman to make his way to the base. “Where are you going?” Lena asks him when she notices him rushing breakfast. “I have to go see Carlos,” he told her. “Carlos.” She replied. “I haven't seen him in a very long time.” “He's around, he's just been so busy.” He said. “I hope everything is alright?” She asked him. He nodded. Up until that moment, he hasn't told her about what has happened. Keeping her in the dark is the best move for the time being. After breakfast, he heads straight to Carlos, who is already there with Zara. “Damian called.” Carlos immediately said. “Me too, last night.” Roman replied. They were shocked. He didn't just call one party, but two. “What did he ask?” Carlos was interested to know. “He wants me to give him some amount of money he can disappear with.” Roman tells them. “I think he's really desperate at this point.” “He called to tell me a different thing.” Zara told them. “He threatened me, said he was still coming for us
Chapter 107
Roman reached the base just before the spy squad left and as he expected, Carlos was there with them. “I tried talking to him, but he wouldn't listen!” Zara told Roman. “What the hell is wrong with you, Carlos?” Roman, angry at Carlos, asks loudly. “This is exactly what Damian and you're playing right into his trap.” Roman told him. “Damian is out for the big fish, while conditioning is to find scraps.” Roman added. “What do you want me to do?” Carlos asked. “Stay behind the desk and do nothing?” “Until you get back yourself, yes!” Roman replied to him. “You are my most valuable security asset and I'm not going to lose you because you were on an emotional rollercoaster.” Roman made it clear to him. He was harsh, but he was saving Carlos. Damian knew Carlos and that was obvious. If he saw Carlos or even someone who for a sec, just looked like Carlos, he would immediately engage. They weren't prepared for such a pressure. “Retire the spy team.” Roman then said to Carlos. “Wh

“Why is he really buying NovaTech? Is it because he's looking for a new tech company to invest in? I doubt that because it wasn't even in his year's resolution, not even pre budgeted for.” He explained to them. “He is buying your company just to spite me. He won't do anything productive with him immediately he satisfies his primary aim of winning.” All listened to him quietly, even the ones who had in mind to give into the sweet deal. He made it clear that he was not afraid to let them go. In fact, he would even let them off if they wanted. “They're many small companies, who under the right circumstances and with the right sponsorship can even become bigger than NovaTech. I don't mind investing in them.” They thought Roman had called to beg them or even top their deals, so they could reconsider, big he didn't. He was in fact telling them what the end would look like if they left, then opening the door for them to leave if they wanted. It took 7 hours to talk to each of the boar
Chapter 109
As expected, the senator was quick to contact the military and they had the devices available as soon as possible. High take drones and invisible gadgets that could map out the area, including heat signatures. They wasted no time in deploying the devices towards the location and controlling it from the base. Soldiers who were highly proficient in saying the machines were also employed. All Roman had to do was stay calm for a few days and let the movements be tracked accordingly. During those times, Roman began his deal with Elara and strongly considered the offers from Holloway's boardmen. ****Four days later. Roman at the base with the rest of them. “The military did the clean sweep of the area and observed the pattern.” Carlos told the rest of the team. It turns out Damian stays there, where his phone was tracked to, but once every two days, he moves to a distant location to pick supplies, which are always sent there for him. “That means we can hit him right at home now.”

“I need back up! I need back up at the pick-up!” He yelled at them to come to his rescue, while he continued to shoot. “We're trapped.” The minion he called told him. “They have us at gun points here.” Damian was shocked. That was indeed a humbling reality. He had been trapped and there was no way out indeed. He can't fall like this. His biggest plans are yet to enter into motion.To make it worse, just as predicted, his ammo got exhausted and he had to run away. They don't let him off. Roman jumps over the car and chases after him immediately.Roman had a gun too and shoots at Damian while he chases. Luck is however on Damian's side, the bullets going over him or by his sides. The policemen also chased after him, but he was ways faster than them. He has mastered the woods. When Roman's bullets get exhausted too, he throws the gun at Damian and this indeed gets him. It hits him straight on the head and he falls and rolls on the ground. Roman reaches him immediately and begins t
