Emmanuel’s patience wore thin. He wondered, That slippery coward fled the city, yet he still clings to his power. What is he trying to achieve? This makes no sense.

Meanwhile, across the city, a clandestine meeting was underway.

Chamber of Commerce representatives from across the country had gathered, answering Gautier’s summons–issued in Teddy’s name just two hours earlier.

The room buzzed with unease.

For years, these individuals thrived under Teddy’s rule. Their fortunes, power, and influence were built on his backing and protection.

If Teddy fell and Mackenzie took over, their secrets would come to light.

Their careers would crumble. Some would lose everything. Others would spend their remaining years in a prison cell.

Teddy’s downfall could not be allowed to happen.

The tension in the room thickened as impatience set in. Some had even begun considering a direct visit to Tanner Residence.

Just as the murmurs grew restless, Gautier finally arrived.

The moment he stepped inside, the group swarmed him.

“Mr. Verkade, where is Mr. Tanner? What is happening?”

“Did he truly call this meeting? What is his next move? We need to hear his plan firsthand!”

“We can’t allow Mackenzie to seize control! Tell us what to do!”

Gautier raised both hands, signaling for silence.

His voice remained clear and unwavering. “Everyone, listen up!”
