Back in the boardroom.
Emilia was the picture of serenity, meticulously sliding her cashier's checks back into their envelope.
Playing in the high-stakes investment world required serious ammunition.
Her actual liquid cash sat around sixty million dollars.
She had accumulated it from her divorce settlement, the royalties from the track Vivienne stole, her Voice of the Divine prize money, her gem commissions, and her cut from the recent concert with Christian. It was a fortune, but she still had operational overhead to consider.
So where did the rest of the capital come from?
The answer was leverage.
Simply put, borrowed money.
An institutional collateralized loan.
The checks Archie brought her from MKK Global were the result of that leverage.
The collateral? Her highly guarded overseas assets and properties her father had left behind.
If she couldn't repay the capital within the agreed-upon window, the bank had the right to seize it all.
MKK Global had been trying to get their hands on those assets for years, but Emilia had always refused to sign them over.
So, the moment she requested the loan, they greenlit it in a heartbeat.
Of course, Emilia had no intention of dumping the entire sum into Aegis Dynamics.
She had pulled this capital for entirely different strategic moves.
She knew all she had to do was ask Theodore, and unlimited funds would flood her accounts in seconds.
But she refused.
She was done being the damsel, the submissive partner everyone looked down on.
