Adam was inside his hostel room for the whole day.
His body had recovered, but his mind was still busy. John was one problem. Aster Core was another. George and the government side were also still there, along with the new manufacturing setup.
In the afternoon, his phone vibrated.
It was a message from Senju.
Adam opened it at once.
Senju had written:
Adam, we have slowed the government agencies down for now. Their aggressive actions have been stopped to some extent.
We took the matter to court and got a stay on their planned moves because they could not give proper answers for the notices. For some time, they should not be able to act as freely as before.
I will keep handling the papers from this side.

Adam read the message twice, then took a deep breath.
The tightness in his chest loosened a little.
They had not won fully, but they had survived the first hit.
'John,' Adam thought, 'I endured your move.'
His eyes became colder.
