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.

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.

“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!”

Gautier raised both hands, signaling for silence.

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