Chapter 43 - Chapter 43: Declaring War

Isabella and Alexander had made their choice.

They weren't running.

They weren't surrendering.

They were fighting.

A Reckless Plan

Damian studied them both, his smirk fading into something more serious. "You realize what this means, right?"

Isabella crossed her arms. "It means Titan Holdings just made their biggest mistake."

Alexander nodded. "They tried to play us against each other. Now, we're coming for them together."

Damian let out a low chuckle. "You two really are insane."

Claire, still gripping her gun, exhaled sharply. "Insane or not, we need to move fast. Titan won't sit back now that they know we're onto them."

Isabella's mind was already racing. "We need leverage. Something to prove Titan Holdings isn't untouchable."

Damian's lips curled. "I might have just the thing."

The Hidden Weakness

Alexander raised an eyebrow. "Go on."

Damian glanced around the rooftop before pulling out his phone. With a few quick taps, he brought up a document filled with names, numbers, and coded transactions.

"This," he said, "is Titan's dirty money trail. Offshore accounts, shell companies, bribes to politicians. It's all here."

Isabella leaned in, scanning the screen. "Where did you get this?"

Damian's smirk returned. "Let's just say I used to work for the wrong people before I decided to make things right."

Alexander's eyes darkened. "And you didn't think to expose this before?"

Damian shrugged. "Because the moment I do, Titan will come for my head. And now? They'll come for all of ours."

Drawing the First Blood

Isabella straightened. "Then we don't just expose them. We make them bleed first."

Alexander glanced at her, intrigued. "You have an idea."

She nodded. "We leak just enough to shake them. Enough to send a warning—but not enough to make them realize how much we actually know."

Damian grinned. "Force them into a mistake."

Alexander's smirk matched his. "And then we take them down."

Isabella's pulse quickened. She had once wanted to destroy Alexander Blackwood.

Now?

They were about to destroy something much bigger.

And this time, they were on the same side.
