Chapter 12 - The Manager Attempts A Desperate And Failed Retaliation Plot
Locked inside a holding cell awaiting formal arraignment, Arthur Vance plotted a desperate and petty retaliation scheme.
He contacted a sensationalist tabloid reporter, offering fabricated stories claiming the CEO maintained a toxic household environment.
The reporter listened eagerly, smelling a juicy scandal that could tarnish the spotless reputation of the billionaire industrialist.
However, when the tabloid editor cross-referenced Arthur’s criminal background and active wage theft charges, they spiked the story.
“We’re not publishing lies from a disgraced felon facing federal fraud charges,” the editor told Arthur over the prison phone.
Arthur slammed the receiver down in frustrated rage, realizing his pathetic attempt to drag down the CEO had completely failed.
His own defense attorney refused to file baseless motions, advising him to take a plea deal before federal charges multiplied.
