Chapter 364

In the private booth of an upscale Manhattan steakhouse, Angus leafed through the reports with rising alarm. The state of the Velona Corporation was far worse than he had imagined. Figures leaped off the page, making his heart race with anxiety.

He looked up, his eyes wide in shock, to meet Harvey's unnervingly calm gaze. The man sat across from him, exuding an air of aristocratic indifference as if discussing a trivial matter.
