Monday morning arrived with an unusual sense of optimism at Lawson Holdings. The temporary lull in the rival's attacks had restored a measure of confidence among the employees, and the successful completion of several key projects had pushed the company's stock price steadily upward.

Meetings resumed their normal rhythm, executives spoke with greater certainty, and even the tense atmosphere that had haunted the headquarters for weeks began to fade. Yet beneath the surface, Peter remained unconvinced that the danger had passed. Experience had taught him that enemies rarely disappeared without a reason. If Daniel had stopped attacking, it was only because he was preparing something far more damaging.
