Lucius Ravenswood stepped out of the sleek black car, his expression unreadable, yet there was a quiet intensity in his eyes—one that signaled the limits of his patience had been reached. Ryan Hold, his ever-reliable assistant, followed closely behind, a leather briefcase in hand filled with files on the corporation they were about to meet—AD Groupe, one of the most powerful investment conglomerates in Switzerland.
AD Groupe wasn’t just any corporation. It controlled a vast network of subsidiaries across finance, technology, and heavy industry. Securing a partnership with Adrien Delacroix, the elusive chairman of this empire, could open a new frontier for Ravenswood Corporation.
The problem? Adrien Delacroix was a ghost.
Ryan glanced at his watch. “We’re right on time, as always.”
