Sylvie's heart stopped beating for sseconds. She stared blankly at the man, her head trying to process the
information.
"Take care of yourself, Another said with a smile, snapping Syivic back to reality,
Ul. Of course, of course." She cleared the lump in her throat, rising to her feet.
Her hands shook lightly as she took her bag.
"Thank you so much for the consideration, she dipped her head once more before walking out..
She took a very deep breath, her hand going over to her chest. Kage was the reason they considered her? Now,
why in God's nwould he do that?
"Two days ago, three trucks conveying sbuilding materials to our site was attacked, and the goods taken.
While the cost is something | can of course, get with a snap of my fingers, I'm a man who hates it when people
messes with me," Kage said to the thirty- four members of the One Trillion Group gathered in the conference
room,
The meeting was scheduled to happen the previous day, but Sylvie's house being burnt affected or from
happening, which was why it had to be shifted.
"That is nonsense!" One of the members Paul fumed. "We must involve the police. The culprits needs to be
caught."
| already got the police involved, and an investigation is ongoing, but for the culprits... Kage shifted his gaze to
Westley who had been staring at him the whole time. "I think 1 know who it is."
"You do?" Another member - Cecily expressed her surprise. "Well, who's it?"
Kage was silent for sseconds before letting out, "It's Westley."
Gasps and murmurs rippled through the room. The people looked at each other and at Westley with so much
disbelief.
"Westley, is this true? Why would you even do such a thing? Someone asked.
's unbelievable. This projects
is meant for us all of us. Why would you want to jeopardize it?"
They kept throwing questions at him. Westley remained silent. When their voices were begining to die down, that
was when he spoke up.
"Mr. Hawkins, do you have any evidence to back these claims? Because | could sue you right now for defamation
of character." "Oh. | dare you. I'd very much love to take this to court, because then, I'd be certain you'll be
thrown in jail."

Westley smiled before looking at the rest of the members. "I didn't do it. Like you all said, this project is meant
for all of us. Why would | want to stall it?"
"I don't know, maybe because you still mad over the land, a land you'll never get. Kage addressed the members.
"A week ago, Westley here took
sreports to the local government, trying to make them not to sign off the building permit. If it wasn't for my
intervention, the building permit would've stayed rejected."
The members expressed their shock.
"And you think | was behind that because..Westley spoke up.
"Because you're a jealous asshole who doesn't know when he's lost."
His words got Westley at the wrong spot, but he wasn't going to show that.
Kage leaned forward on the table. He wished it could be easy kicking Westley out, but that wasn't how the group
worked. When his great grandfather had found the group, he cup with sstupid rules that was hard to
change now. Without concrete evidence of a m "I called for this meeting because | want you all to know what

He walked away, leaving whispers in his wake.
Once he was in his car, he placed a call.
"Yes. Be it now," he spoke into the phone.
He tossed the phone aside, then ordered his driver to hit the tal
Westley didn't know it yet, but he'd stepped on a bad toe.
Sylvie's phone wouldn't stop ringing. Her father had been calling endlessly, sending numerous texts as regards
to why hadn't given in to Kage's demands yet. He didn't even know what demands were, but he knew that since
Kage was refusing to sign the deal yet, it only m Sylvie was a little upset that her father didn't care what Kage's
demands were but was only concerned about the deal. What if Kage was asking her to kill herself?
However, the other part of her understood him. The man was aging and wanted to achieve certain things before
it was to late. It was unfortunate that Sylvie was always the sacrificial lamb
There was also a part of her that was a little surprised that Kage had helped her with the Oak Investors. So, Kage

Westley didn't like the suspense. "Get it out already. What is it?"
"It's... Olivia Carter and Donald Thompson. They've withdrawn from the company."
It took Westley sseconds to process the words, and when he did, it sounded like a joke.
"What're to talking about?" He scoffed. "It's impossible for them to pull out. Those are our top partners."
