"What?" Luke stared at Dominic in disbelief. He had no idea the company name had been changed overnight.
"Accept the reality, Luke." Dominic's voice was calm, but the pride in it was unmistakable. "I've already taken over the company. The board listens to me. The guards follow my orders. You are nothing here."
"You…" Luke's expression twisted with fury. "You betrayed me. I'll kill you."
He reached behind his back, pulled out a gun, and aimed it directly at Dominic.
Everyone gasped. Several directors ducked beneath the table, while others scrambled behind their chairs.
"Dominic." Luke's finger tightened around the trigger. "Just die."
The men in black suits standing silently around the room moved instantly.
Before Luke could fire, they crossed the distance between them at breakneck speed. One of them seized his wrist and twisted it sharply, forcing the gun from his hand. Another grabbed him from behind and drove him to his knees.
The weapon clattered onto the floor.
