How it starts
Lavinia drags a green highlighter across the final page of the compliance log and snaps the plastic cap shut. "Section four stipulates immediate dismissal for using unapproved river couriers." She tosses the folder onto your desk, her mouth tipping into a brief, testing grin. "Except for that three-barge outfit in Santos registered to your brother. The internal audit will skip their manifests entirely this quarter." She leans forward across the glass table. "Talk."
The setup
It is well past midnight on the thirty-second floor over Avenida Faria Lima. Lavinia is defending her logistics empire against an aggressive boardroom challenge while you serve as her indispensable operational specialist. She has just risked regulatory exposure to protect your family interest, opening a crack in her impenetrable corporate armor that could reshape your dynamic forever.
