<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Ever since Imminence Corporation entered Tud, it had all but backed the localpanies into a corner. Orion Corporation, unfamiliar with its tactics, quickly found itself at a disadvantage. While everyone was preupied with curbing Imminence Corporation’s growing dominance, no one dared to after its clients–Cecilia was the first to do so.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Nichs‘ gaze was filled with admiration when he heard that suggestion.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">He had long since grown tired of being passive; it was indeed time for him to take the initiative.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Cecilia pressed on, “Nopany has endless resources and Imminence Corporation must have spent a fortune to lock in that deal with Hardy Group. This is the perfect time for us to reim some of the clients they’ve taken from us. Let’s turn their aggressive spending into our advantage.”</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">“Will that work?” questioned one of the executives.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Another one of them chimed in, “It’s not like when Mr. Nathaniel was in charge. We have to tread carefully now. If we start poaching Imminence Corporation’s clients, we might provoke them and get sabotaged ourselves.”</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Another agreed, adding, “Exactly. The people behind Imminence Corporation are too cunning. If Mr. Nathaniel had recovered his sight, maybe we could’ve taken them on. But as things stand, we have to be cautious.”</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">They were referring to Nathaniel.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Cecilia was surprised that they all trusted Nathaniel so much at this juncture.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Indeed, back then, Orion Corporation was nowhere near as expansive as it is now, and it was riddled with various crises.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Back then, Orion Corporation was far from the powerhouse it was today, gued by crises on all fronts. Nathaniel had barely reached adulthood when he took on the immense burden of turning things around. Through sheer will and determination, he built Orion into a major yer, both at home and abroad–his name bing widely respected. But now, with his sight gone, it felt like everything he’d worked for had crumbled. Cecilia couldn’t help but feel a deep sense of regret for him. He should have remained a powerful, influential figure, yet here he was, relegated to working in a small, obscurepany.</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">..</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Nichs‘ face darkened, but he swiftlyposed himself and asked, “Do you think I’m not as capable as my older brother?”</font></font>
<font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">His words hung in the air, casting a heavy silence over the room. No one dared to voice what they were all thinking, but the truth lingered unspoken–deep down, they believed Nichs couldn’tpare to Nathaniel. If Nathaniel were in charge, Orion Corporation wouldn’t be facing defeat after defeat at the hands of Imminence Corporation. Under his leadership, they were certain Imminence Corporation would never have gained a foothold in Tud.</font></font>
Nichs said, “I agree with Ms. Smith. We should seize this opportunity to counterattack Imminence Corporation.”Belonging ? N?velDram/a.Org.
Nichs knew what they were thinking. He picked up a ss of water and took a sip. He reache ss of water, bringing it to his lips. The water, once warm, had turned cold, its sharpness grating against his throat. His hand clenched the ss tightly, the veins on his knuckles bulging.
If it weren’t for my illness, I would have taken over Rainsworth Group, and I’d be every bit as capable as Nathaniel.
“Mr. Rainsworth, we need to tread carefully,” one of the seasoned employees urged, his toneced with doubt. Despite Nichs‘ position, the veteran staff remained skeptical, quick to voice their concerns.
“We’ve worked tirelessly to build Orion “Exactly,” added a long–time shareholder and senior executive Corporation to where it is today. Instead of stirring up trouble, let’s focus on securing new clients and keeping thepany stable.” His main concern was clear–short–term gains and maintaining the status quo, with little interest in bold risks.
“No need for further discussion. I’ve made my decision he dered. “The sales department’s manager can handle the arrangements. Meeting adjourned.”
When Nichs rose to his feet, he turned to Cecilia. “Ms. Smith, could you pleasee to my

Cecilia followed him to his office.
office?”
Earlier, she had observed Nichs‘ struggle. The senior executives refused to heed his words, making it clear that leading as CEO was anything but easy for him.
Upon arriving at the CEO’s office, Nichs said to her, “Close the door.”
“Okay,” sheplied. Nichs activated the automatic curtains, causing them to descend,pletely blocking the view from the outside and making the office feel sealed off from the world.
They were the only ones in the office
