“Also, get some fluff pieces placed for me—start pushing the narrative that Carter Group’s product is the breakthrough of the decade, guaranteed to wipe the floor with the subpar offerings from Powell Group and Bexley.

“Run with that angle, hard.

“I want every financial outlet and major newspaper flooded with those stories within 24 hours.”

As he finished speaking, his executive team nodded in agreement, already mobilizing.

Meanwhile, Isabella was still walking Isaac through a few points when she noticed Adrian releasing him. She overheard Adrian’s phone conversation as well.

What was he playing at? Bad–mouthing his own company while pumping up Carter Group’s image?

It didn’t take long for her to piece it together.

She watched as Marcus passed a flash drive to one of his people. In no time, that same drive found its way to Eugene.

Frowning, Eugene immediately got on the line with Vex. “Someone just reached out offering to sell Powell Group’s core source code for the Neural–Network Interface System.

“I’ve had it looked over–the code checks out clean.

“What’s your read on this?”

His tone was sharp. He didn’t buy for a second that this was a coincidence.

Right after he’d publicly announced Carter Group would launch their Neural–Network Interface System on the same day as Powell Group, here was someone handing over their competitor’s core code on a silver platter.

And right now, market sentiment was heavily against Carter’s version–everyone was betting on Powell Group to come out on top.

In that climate, whoever was selling this code clearly wanted him to use it. From the outside, Carter’s system looked like a rushed job, maybe not even half–baked–more like an empty shell.

“That way, it’ll look like you’ve made huge leaps overnight, closing years of R&D gap in no time.

“But come the press conference, you’ll hit a wait–all that momentum derailed by a foundational

misdirection.

“And that’s when Powell and Bexley will move in for the acquisition.”

If Carter Group’s Neural–Network Interface System crashed or glitched critically during the demo, Powell and Bexley would be right there to accuse them of cutting corners, misleading investors, and scamming consumers with an unstable product.

Not only would Powell and Bexley’s own launch then shine brighter, they’d rise by burying Carter’s reputation. A weakened Carter Group would make easy prey–a chance to raise capital, acquire key assets. cheaply, and revitalize their own standings in one sweep.

“Clever play,” Isabella remarked with a light, humorless laugh. Then she added, “Actually, don’t just ignore it–wait.”

She paused, her gaze turning thoughtful. Her fingers flew across the keyboard.

Within moments, she had modified the core code Eugene sent and fired it back to him. “Build a batch of units using this revised code.
