Chapter 94



York, of course, didn't have a clue about design, and since I was the only director of the Design Department, with the whole department united behind me, there was no way he could wedge himself in. In the end, he had no choice but to slink away, defeated.

I wasn't sure if he'd run to Merritt to complain, but I knew I wasn't going to back down.

If I did, with those two key departments under his control, Clyde's position would be hanging by a thread.
