Chapter 11 - The Boardroom Panic As Stock Prices Begin To Tremble
Back in Manhattan, the polished mahogany boardroom of Bennett Medical Technologies was a scene of controlled panic.
Board directors paced across the floor-to-ceiling glass windows overlooking Central Park while checking their glowing smartphones.
“The Charlotte audit report just leaked to Bloomberg, Jonathan!” Director Sterling shouted, waving an iPad in the air.
“Stock prices dropped four points within the first hour of trading! Wall Street is calling this a PR disaster!”
Jonathan walked into the boardroom calmly, unbuttoning his suit jacket as he took his rightful seat at the head of the table.
“It’s not a PR disaster, Sterling; it’s a long-overdue corporate cleansing,” Jonathan replied smoothly, placing his briefcase on the table.
“We spent years ignoring the daily struggles of everyday patients to focus entirely on luxury profit margins.”
“That era ends right now today.”
