"They laughed when she walked in. They begged when she walked out."
When her father's board of directors votes to strip her of her inheritance and hand the company to her stepbrother, Vivienne doesn't fight back in the boardroom. She buys every single one of their companies instead. One by one. Quietly. Devastatingly. And when she finally walks back through those doors, she doesn't come as a daughter. She comes as the owner.
"Eleven hands raised against me. I counted every single one. I memorized every face."
"Eleven hands raised against me. I counted every single one. I memorized every face."
"Board member Hargrove owned three hotels and a shipping company. Past tense."
"He threw a party to celebrate stealing my company. I attended. He didn't know it was me."
"By the fourth acquisition, they started to notice. By the fifth, they started to panic."
"He voted against me too. So why is he the only one trying to warn me about what's coming?"
"My father didn't leave me nothing. He left me everything. They just didn't know where to look."
"He called me crying. I let it go to voicemail. Three times."
"They called the meeting to discuss the hostile takeover. They didn't realize I was the one who called it."
"I rewarded the one who warned me. I destroyed the rest. That is what justice looks like."
"They stripped me of a company. I came back with an empire. I think that's fair."
The story isn't over. Season 2 picks up where the ashes fall — and this time, she holds all the cards.
Vivienne is the most powerful character I have ever listened to. The way she takes them down one by one is so satisfying.
