Chapter 41

Wellington Industries - Aiden's Office

"Goddamnit, Marcus, tell me you have stopped the fucking broadcast," Aiden shouted into his cell phone, his steps quick as he and Marina entered his sleek, glass decorated office. They had faced a lot of pressure from Maxwell lately—it has started telling on them. 

Marcus's voice came through the speaker. "We are doing absolutely everything we can, sir. The network is repelling—they're citing journalistic integrity. Claire Dawson is insisting her sources are credible."

"Credible?" Aiden growled, slamming his palm against the desk. "Maxwell doesn't have an atom of credibility, and he's dragging Wellington Industries through the mud with his lies."

Marina stepped closer, locking arms with Aiden. "There has to be another way," she said. "If we can't stop the broadcast, at least we can discredit it before it airs."
