Jeremy didn't object. "A change of scenery will do you good. Since your mind is made up, I'll rearrange things on my end. But you need to have a clear conversation with your family."
The biggest concern, of course, was Anne.
"I will," Felicia agreed.
Just as she was about to leave, she couldn't resist asking about the company's status, specifically the partnership with the Curtis family.
"The Curtises are likely hoping we terminate the contract first," Jeremy explained. "That way, Holden can swoop in and let his people take Roen's place."
However, Roen Capital was strictly following the contract. Since the Curtis family had been the ones begging for this partnership in the first place, Roen Capital held all the cards. The Curtis family couldn't afford to break the agreement themselves without facing an astronomical penalty fee. Things had gotten incredibly messy, and their only hope was for Jeremy to bow out voluntarily.
But right now, the Curtis family had far bigger problems to worry about. Darin was showing no mercy. While things were relatively quiet in the Capital, Northwick was essentially a war zone. The local government had already stepped in due to the massive economic fallout, and no one knew how the dust would settle. Darin was currently stationed in Northwick to oversee the destruction personally.
Felicia nodded, choosing not to dig any deeper. As long as Jeremy's side was secure, that was all that mattered. "I'll head out then."
"Stay at the office," Jeremy suggested. "We'll grab lunch together."
"Alright," she agreed.
Once Felicia left his office, Jeremy dialed Darin's number. It connected almost immediately. "Felicia is planning to move to Cloudville," Jeremy informed him.
"Did she bring it up herself?" Darin asked.
"Yes. Her condition is actually much better than I anticipated."
They had both feared the truth would completely shatter her, but she had chosen to face reality. She might still be in pain, but she was finding her footing.
