The other councilors exchanged looks and nodded. There was no need to vote on this; the moment they had seen the cash in Purgatory Group's accounts, they had already taken it as their own. Even if this company paid all their taxes and was legally firm, they would simply make up a reason to seize the money.
On Earth in 2070, the World Council had the final say!
Over the course of the next few minutes, the group decided how to split the money, and this was the focus of their debate for a while. Eventually, James Rockefeller used his slightly superior authority to force a relatively equal share that the other councilors grudgingly accepted.
With the click of a button, all the money that rightfully belonged to Umbra was easily siphoned away, the offshore bank that the Purgatory Group used, which claimed to be beholden to no one, even sending their regards to the World Council, hoping for praise.
