Chapter 8 - The Arrogant Celebration

That night, inside Greenwich’s most expensive steakhouse, Julian sat at a corner booth surrounded by his sycophantic executives and his young mistress, Chloe.
Julian raised his glass of crystal champagne, laughing loudly.
"To independence!" Julian toasted smugly. "I finally got rid of the dead weight. Evelyn thought she could drag me down forever. Tomorrow, Arthur Vance signs the thirty-million-dollar deal, and we take this company public!"
Chloe giggled, kissing his cheek. "What if she goes to a lawyer, Julian?"
"With what money?" Julian sneered, taking a sip of his wine. "I wiped her bank accounts clean. She’s probably sleeping in a shelter with the kids right now. She has zero power."
His phone buzzed on the table with a text from Arthur Vance's executive assistant: Confirmation: The signing ceremony is confirmed for 2:00 PM tomorrow. Mr. Vance looks forward to closing the deal.
