Larissa's Game of Thrones (Larissa) novel Chapter 416

Ursa didn’t press the matter further. She took the signed resignation letters and left the office.

Larissa picked up her phone and called Nightveil.

“Nightveil, I need you to transfer some of our organization’s people over to Starlight Media.”

Nightveil sounded surprised. “Boss, isn’t it a bit of an overkill to have our people working at Starlight Media?”

She had a point. Their organization was a clandestine global alliance of elite talents—hackers who could breach national defense systems, Pulitzer-winning war photographers, and stock market wizards who had triggered financial crises on Wall Street.

Assigning these top-tier experts to an entertainment company was like asking a quantum physicist to design stage holograms, a nanomaterials expert to improve stage costumes, or a behavioral psychologist to write fan engagement strategies.

But it would also be a crushing, asymmetric attack on every other entertainment company.

Larissa chuckled. “Think of it as a short vacation for them. Once the “Heaven’s Will” project is complete, the company won’t be short-staffed anymore.”

“I understand.”

…

When Ursa distributed the approved resignation letters, the departing employees were shocked. They had fully expected the new CEO to drag her feet and make the process difficult.

“This fast? She didn’t even try to convince us to stay?” asked Magnus, the acquisitions department manager.

Ursa sighed. “You all had already decided to leave. Would you have really stayed if Ms. Judson had asked?”

“Looks like she’s just given up,” Magnus said with a smirk, turning to the remaining employees. “See? The rest of you can wait around for unemployment. I’m off to Gale Entertainment tomorrow. Double the salary, here I come.”

This was all Larissa’s fault. She would destroy Larissa.

She knew Lucius felt the same way; otherwise, he wouldn’t have rescued her from Paxton and his family. Whatever Lucius wanted from her, she would do it, as long as it meant Larissa’s downfall.

And who knew, maybe she could even capture Lucius’s heart in the process. After all, she was Regal City’s most talented belle, far superior to his fiancée, Livia. Her scars were temporary. With the right treatment, her beauty would be restored.

As these thoughts swirled in her mind, she heard a commotion outside the door.

Honora’s eyes lit up.

Lucius was here.
