Alexander Day One III

Back in the office, Cassius sat across from Patrick Morgan, the newly appointed head of the Morgan family. The man sat with such an air of authority that it was clear he was one of the most powerful people in the world. Patrick controlled JP Morgan Chase, the largest bank on the planet, with assets reaching into the trillions. His decisions could affect the fate of millions of people.

And here he was, meeting with Cassius Blackwell, a man whom Patrick had started to regard as an equal.

Cassius's voice broke the silence. "If you agree to do that, Blackwell Investments will move all its assets to JP Morgan Chase within the month."

Patrick, who had been dealing with personal troubles ever since his second wife moved in with his son, sighed deeply before responding. "Fine. But just know that we'll just be shielding you. The Morgans have no interest in fighting the Rockefellers."

Cassius nodded with a sharp smile. "Deal."
