Trading My Ex for His Uncle (Nyla and Damon) novel Chapter 1041

Damon nodded. "Got it. Have the PR department continue contacting major media outlets to remove any negative commentary about Prospectus Technology. We can't let this situation escalate further."

In the business world, public opinion could be lethal.

Most people were naturally inclined to follow the crowd. Without knowing the full picture, they could easily be misled.

If the narrative that Prospectus Technology's chips were faulty spread too far, restoring their reputation later would require monumental resources. It was critical to stop this from snowballing now.

"Understood, Mr. Sumner. By the way, how's the deal in Capitarnia coming along?" someone asked.

Upon hearing that, Damon's previously tense expression relaxed slightly. "Progress is decent. Barring any unforeseen issues, we should be able to sign the contract in a couple of days."

The group on the call let out a collective sigh of relief.

Once the deal was signed, Prospectus Technology would recover some of its losses and buy time to identify the real cause of the Longbow Company machine failures.

Prospectus Technology's chips had undergone rigorous testing before hitting the market, so they remained confident in their product's quality.

After the meeting ended, Damon rubbed his temples, visibly exhausted.

The past few days had been nonstop—client meetings, travel, and late-night work sessions. With three to four hours of sleep a night, his body was nearing its limit.

Noticing the dark circles under Damon's eyes, Spencer spoke up. "Mr. Sumner, how about skipping the paperwork tonight and getting some rest?"

Damon shook his head. "No, I'll rest after the contract is signed."

Seeing his determination, Spencer sighed and placed a stack of documents on the desk. "I'll go get you a coffee."

"Thanks," Damon replied.

…

It was well past midnight when Damon finally finished the paperwork.

He picked up his phone and noticed a message from Nyla. His eyes softened for a moment before his expression turned serious again.

Exiting the chat window, he sent a message to Brandon.

At 4:00 a.m., a plane from Saintornia landed in Capitarnia.

Gabriel stepped out of the airport with his secretary and headed straight to his hotel.

On the way, the secretary handed him a folder. "Mr. Hackett, here's the dossier on Mr. Westcott from the Westcott Group."

Gabriel flipped through the file.

Tim Westcott, originally an illegitimate son of the previous CEO of the Westcott Group, hadn't even been in line for succession.

However, his two legitimate older brothers had removed themselves from the running—one pursued a career in medicine, and the other had been involved in a car accident three years ago, leaving him paralyzed and later mentally unstable. That left the Westcott Group to Tim.

Upon taking over, Tim wasted no time asserting his dominance.

Within a month, he forced several veteran board members to step down.

Over the next three months, he pressured dissenting shareholders to either sell their shares or relinquish their decision-making power. Tim had solidified his control over the company in less than half a year.
