"Maybe but her past makes her not to be predictable and unpredictable is really a liability." William said.
Elias did not reply immediately, his mind was thinking about William's words.
"You have always been careful, Elias, that is why you have succeeded where others have failed but lately, I have noticed some.....cracks in your bones."
"Cracks?" Elias asked, raising an eyebrow.
"Cracks?" Elias asked, raising an eyebrow.
"You are letting emotions cover her judgement, Lena, Vivian, even Langston, they are all playing you in different ways." William said simply.
"And what do you suggest I do?" Elias asked, his voice was filled with much frustration.
"Focus on what you can control, the company and your legacy. These people are distractions."
"Lena is not just a distraction." Elias said as his eyes was narrowed.
