“W–What?! But that’s insane! There’s no way I’m handing this company over to you! I asked for help, but now you’re trying to kick me off my own throne?!”“There is no other way to save this company and your family without sacrifice, Ser Teslo, that is the reality,” said Damon. He placed his hand on the Teslo heir’s shoulder and gave it a gentle squeeze. “Just think of your people. The small family you still have left. If you aren’t the one to save them, then who will be? The decision is entirely in your hands, but if you choose this path, know that I will do whatever it takes to secure this company and make it successful again.”Jace Teslo’s eyes reddened as he fought back tears. Luca tried not to look away. He needed to appear trustworthy as the Kane family’s representative, and the brown haired man realized something.If the heir chose to sign the document, it would be because he was still thinking of his family and his son and finally, Jace picked up the pen.“If I step down from t
