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

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

“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

“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.

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

After Roman, Holloway was the next to be interviewed. “What do you think about Roman beating you to a Walcott Merger?” He was asked. “It's nothing at all.” He said. “I saw a good business and thought to take it.” He added. “And I got bored with it and handed it over to him.” “But from a business insider, you fought tooth and nail for it and still lost.” The interviewer argued. “Come on, you don't wanna be listening to every business insider. Most of them lie for clout.” He defended. His words were fake as his face was pale. No matter how he tried to cover up, the dent was already made. His investors began eyeing Roman behind him. *****“Are you sure she's ready?” Roman asked the doctor as they watched Zara lay on the bed. She had been placed in a medical induced Coma, so they were able to work on her. “By all accounts, medically, she is ready for the real world again.” The doctor said. “As soon as we pull the plug, she will be awake again.” “Then do it.” Roman told the doctor.
