Chapter 12 - Lucille Lost Her Committee Power, Not Her Entire Life
Rafael could not simply erase Lucille from the company.
She owned shares.
Had legal rights.
And Rafael refused to turn corporate governance into personal revenge.
The board did something narrower.
Lucille was removed from the governance and nominations committee after an independent review confirmed she used company communications to coordinate the campaign against Rafael.
Derek lost his operational role pending investigation of separate workplace concerns.
Celina had no management position to lose.
The shares stayed theirs.
Distributions continued according to governing documents.
No magical financial destruction.
Just less authority.
That consequence enraged Lucille more than losing money would have.

Because influence had always been what she valued most.
