Chapter 9 - The Broken Trust
Three days after the raid, Liam convened an emergency board meeting at Harrison Enterprises.
The long mahogany table was surrounded by wealthy investors and corporate executives, all visibly shaken by the news.
"Senator Sterling has pulled thirty percent of our liquidity options out of spite," Liam informed the board.
"Our stock is down twelve percent since Evelyn’s arrest," a senior executive noted nervously.
"We need to cut ties with the Vance family completely to stabilize the market," the executive suggested, looking at Maya.
Liam slammed his hand down onto the mahogany table with a sound like a thunderclap, shocking the room into silence.
"Maya Vance is the Chief Operating Officer of this company, and she stays," Liam declared with absolute dominance.
"Anyone who has a problem with that can sell their shares back to me before five o'clock today," he added.
Not a single executive dared to speak or raise their hand against Liam's fiery declaration.
