The reason he had stormed into headquarters and thrown a tantrum today was because Damien Valerius had, without a word, uprooted all the secret operatives he had left inside.
When the patriarch had stripped Liam Valerius of all his power, he'd also fired or transferred everyone loyal to him within the conglomerate.
