Chapter 24 - THE HOSTILE TAKEOVER
On a cold Monday morning in November, Sterling Financial's stock price plummeted by fifteen percent in early trading.
Nathan arrived at Wall Street headquarters, finding his executive team in a state of absolute chaos.
"An anonymous hedge fund called Apex Capital is buying up millions of our shares!" his chief chief officer reported.
"Who owns Apex Capital?" Nathan demanded, standing at the head of the mahogany conference table.
"The primary silent partner behind Apex is Julianna Vance... Senator Vance's sister!" the lawyer revealed nervously.
Nathan's dark eyes narrowed as he realized the Vance family was attempting a final revenge strike against his company.
"They think they can corner me on the open market," Nathan smirked coldly, pulling out his personal encryption key.
"Execute protocol Omega... release our private reserve capital and buy back every circulating share on Wall Street."
Within three hours, Nathan poured two billion dollars of his personal fortune into the market, crushing the takeover bid.
