Citrine shook her head, lifting her gaze with a hint of disdain. "The Iversons had their chance, but they chose to throw it away. Since that's the case, I'll just have to find another way to get what I want." Her eyes grew cold as she thought of Holbrook. "As for Holbrook... if he dies, so be it." She'd already given them an opportunity. If the Iversons didn't want it, there was nothing more she could do. Patten listened and understood-Citrine wouldn't step in again.

With CICI Group's superior smart tech on the market, it was as if the Iversons' foundation had been ripped out from under them.
Meanwhile, Citrine glanced at a message from her assistant and discovered that the Carmichael Group had also been hammering the Iversons these last few days. Just to keep the Iverson Group's scandals trending, the Carmichaels had dumped over a billion dollars into media buys and smear campaigns.
