Esme's smirk remained in place as she slowly traced the edge of the file, her gaze fixed on the documents before her. "Even though Diana is good in business," she began, her voice smooth and unhurried, "it's also the truth that not all the shareholders are happy with her."
She paused for a moment, letting the weight of her words sink into the air. Her fingers tapped rhythmically on the table, the subtle sound echoing through the room.
"And yet," she continued, her eyes narrowing slightly, "no one has objected. Do you know why?"
Esme's lips curved into a faint smile as she leaned back, crossing her arms. "It's because she has Florence as her backing. Without him, Diana's reign wouldn't have lasted this long."
Her tone was calm, almost casual, but there was an undeniable edge to it. "The moment she loses Florence's support… well, things won't be as simple for her. Not all those shareholders will stay quiet once they see she's no longer protected."
