William Thompson was one of the directors at Sterling Group. He had worked here for a very long time. He had a reputation for being ambitious and ruthless, always seeking ways to climb the corporate ladder.
He looked down on employees and even sabotaged the careers of those he viewed as competition. His ambition knew no bounds, and he was willing to do whatever it took to advance his own interests, even if it meant stepping on others along the way.
