In just two weeks, Mason had tapped into the industryâs best resources. His popularity had skyrocketed, trending daily, and amassing tens of millions of followers.
Bailey knocked on the study door.
Conner, clearly agitated, grumbled, âCome in.â
Bailey entered and noticed Connerâs frustration. âMr. Jefferson, our company has been experiencing severe losses lately. Are you planning to return to the company to address this?â
With Zion and Maeve each having extorted five billion dollars from him, his company was short ten billion.
on family in Additionally, the losses of a few billion dollars from the Hackett Group had compounded the issue. Even with the vast wealth of the Jefferson Lentimas City, covering such a shortfall wasnât easy.
âOur familyâs assets are worth hundreds of billions,â Conner said dismissively. âAlthough weâre not as wealthy as the Brooks family, weâre far from destitute. Itâs not a big deal. Just figure out how to manage it.â
âBut-
Bailey was about to protest, but Conner cut him off, pushing the laptop toward him. âTake a look at this.â
The screen showed Masonâs fan count had surpassed ten million within a month of his debut. He was the first trainee to achieve this since Bryce, who was launched by Scott Entertainment.
Bailey remained silent for a moment before saying, âMason is now a public figure. Itâs challenging to act against him, especially in Sergioâs territory. And then thereâs Maeve..â
The e mere mention of Marve gave Conner a headache. He wondered where she had come from and why she always seemed to be a thorn in his side.
Taking a deep breath, Conner ordered, âSet up a meeting with Maere.â
âMr. Jefferson, we need to be cautious. Given Maeveâs relationship with Sergio...â
âSerglo sacrificed the Ramoz family, a valuable asset, for her. Zion, too, risked everything for her. These top men in n Seathburn City are vying for Marve âI want to understand what makes her so exceptional. After all, sheâs just a woman. I might be able to give her what she wants.â
A smirk crossed Connerâs face as he glanced at Masonâs profile on the screen.
While he was indifferent to most matters, Mason was an exception. He couldnât allow the child of that woman to become a star.
Never.
Later that afternoon, Maeve sat in her office at Mirage Group when she received a message from Conner requesting a meeting.
Zayla, who had thought Maeveâs earlier mention of a surprise for Conner was a joke, was shocked to see Conner reaching out so soon.
She inquired, âWeâve purchased new land in Lentimas City for development, as you instructed. The Jeffersons must be aware by now. Why is Conner still in Seathburn City?â
âHe is currently focused on Mason and expanding his influence here. Heâs unlikely to notice such minor matters.â
A smile graced Marveâs lips.
The Jeffersons had dominated Lentimas City for so long that they had grown complacent. With Connerâs attention diverted to Seathburn City, she planned to take control of Lentimas City.
By the time Conner realized what was happening, the city would already have new rulers. But first, she needed to keep him occupied.
