Master of his heart

Chapter 102
Even though Brielle had no desire to be entangled with William, she had to admit
he was spot on—-Max truly held his values in high regard.
Alpha Enterprises’ leadership had launched a total of five initiatives last year,
sparking a frenzy of competition among the teams. This not only tested their
mettle but also fostered a cutthroat culture within the
company. In the pursuit of high stakes rewards, employees were more inclined to
copy successful models from others, directly transplanting star projects from
startup teams. Hence, Alpha Enterprises’ growth was always shadowed by a
chorus of criticism.
While it was true that business often lacked clear distinctions between “good”
and “evil,” and sometimes even between “right” and “wrong,” it didn’t mean that
companies should have been devoid of a sense of social responsibility.
Companies shouldn't have engaged in
competition without any ethical boundaries, nor should they have behaved
without constraints.
For now, Alpha was unscathed simply because a few of its leaders had
connections in high places. But in the ever—shifting landscapes of politics and
commerce, should their protective canopy fall, a deluge of lawsuits would
inevitably await Alpha Enterprises. Dorsey International getting involved with
such a company would only attract trouble.
Brielle hung her head, acutely aware of Ryan's glare—cold, mocking, and
venomous. The shadows cast by what Ryan brought to her that night were vivid
in her memory, and she realized she shouldn't have provoked him. But even if
she hadn't done so today, Ryan would never have let her
off the hook.
Ryan narrowed his eyes and switched the content on the big screen. “We invest
in a company based solely on its potential profitability. Other considerations are
irrelevant. These are the strategies for the future given to me by Alpha’s leaders.
Take a look before we make any decisions.”

Originally, Brielle had thought Alpha might go bankrupt and restructure. within the
next two years. But after seeing the strategy, she suspected they might barely
last another year.
Ryan was too eager to turn his fortunes around with this investment, and given
his longstanding friendship with Alpha’s president, he had overlooked crucial
details.
She frowned and slowly put down her pen. To be honest, the strategy was
beautifully crafted, a carefully polished piece.
Ryan went on with more talk, each sentence more professional than the last,
before finally turning off the big screen.
“Alpha chose Dorsey International because of a personal connection. with me.
We absolutely can’t miss this opportunity.”
Brielle’s eyelids lazily twitched as she spoke up in a soft voice, “Investing two
billion is a huge sum. Surely it would require Mr. Dorsey's approval, right?”
Otherwise, what was Max, the president, but a mere figurehead? How could
Ryan be so bold?

Brielle also looked at William, curious how he would respond without offending
Ryan.
William smiled, removing the glasses perched on his nose, revealing fine lines at
the corners of his eyes. Despite his impressive upkeep, the signs of his fifty years
were inevitable.
“Brielle has a point. If we go ahead with this, it'll be tough to explain to Max. Why
not have Brielle gauge Max's stance on the matter?”
Without hesitation, he pushed Brielle, the one with no connections, into
the line of fire.
