Two days after the negotiation meeting, the investors gathered again.
This time the purpose was simple.
They would choose which company would lead the international project.
Knight Corporation.
Or Victoria Hayes' company.
Inside the large conference hall, tension filled the air.
Emily sat beside Alexander reviewing final reports.
Lucas leaned closer and whispered,
"This is going to be close."
Emily nodded.
"Very close."
Across the room, Victoria Hayes sat calmly.
She looked completely relaxed.
When she noticed Emily watching her, she smiled slightly.
Emily looked away.
"She's too confident," Emily whispered.
Alexander replied quietly,
"Confidence can be dangerous."
