Today was the Pitch Day.
On days like this, the board members of Horizon Strategies and Investments gathered together to listen to ideas, plans and investment strategies that could move the company further.
So, for Tamara, it was a very important day. Despite being the interim CEO, she knew power was not fully in her grasp, and her brother was ready to take it from her.
Many of the board members in fact preferred him to her.
NeuraNest was her chance to sway their opinions and lock in their votes.
The boardroom was a perfectly polished place, with windows that stretched from the floor to the ceiling.
Morning light sprayed inside through these windows, shining light on the long mahogany table that dominated the space.
Surrounding this table were twelve board members in tailored suits, their eyes sharp and expectant.
