Chapter 653 Seeing The Bigger Picture
They needed to make it clear that while they were reasonable and good-natured, they also had their limits.
But Hera had other plans. She knew that several factions were already eyeing the Avery Consortium, waiting for the chance to exploit the foreign conglomerate as a pawn in their own schemes to challenge them directly.
If these forces banded together, it would pose an even greater threat to the Avery. She couldn’t afford to fall into that trap or risk escalating the situation.
Moreover, the foreign conglomerate had already suffered significant losses from the virus Sasha had unleashed, and some of their sensitive internal data had been leaked onto the dark web.

If they were clever enough to connect the dots between their actions and the consequences, they would eventually come crawling to the Avery headquarters, seeking forgiveness.
Hera had already offered them a way out; now it was up to them to decide how to make the most of the generosity she had extended.
She understood that she didn’t yet have enough real power to expose herself fully to the world, and making more enemies was a risk she couldn’t afford.
