Chapter 1068 The Trap (III)
- Madison Sawyer and Chadwick Fullner split up. She went straight to meet a senior executive at another bank—someone who’d always had a decent relationship with Malcom Sawyer. After Chadwick Fullner wrapped up his talk with Levi Thompson, he headed to the spot she’d agreed on. It was boiling out. He parked, shot Madison a text, then ducked into a café to wait.
- Once the coffee landed on the table, Chad had zero mood to savor it. He knocked it back in one go, didn’t even taste the bitterness. His head was crammed with everything Levi had just told him.
- One wrong move and the whole board goes to hell—that pretty much summed up where they were. He’d been too optimistic, way too quick to underestimate Donnie Burns. He thought he could help Madison strike back, but why on earth would Donnie sit still and let go of Regal Peaks after paying such a steep price for it—without even guarding his flank? Worse, Chad had underestimated Donnie’s methods and clout. He hadn’t seen it coming: one sentence from Donnie, and their path was slammed shut. Everything they’d done up front turned to ash. They were trapped in his game.
