Liam's POV
The silence in the boardroom was deafening.
I sat there, staring at the mahogany table that had once been my throne, now feeling like my execution block. The weight of what had just happened pressed down on me like a physical force. CEO of Synergy Sphere. Gone. Just like that. Years of building, clawing, fighting my way to the top—erased in a single unanimous vote.
The irony wasn't lost on me. The same day they stripped me of everything I'd worked for was the same day my children were coming into this world.
I tried to process it all, but my mind felt fractured, pieces of reality scattered like broken glass. Andrew Evans—Diane's father. The man whose life I'd destroyed years ago, now returning the favor with surgical precision. And Natasha... God, Natasha. Guerrero's daughter. How had I been so blind?
The sound of knocking on the boardroom door jolted me back to the present. Anthony's concerned face appeared in the doorway, his massive frame filling the entrance.
