Chapter 19
Adrian Names the Sponsor
Adrian admitted he changed the firmware and accepted Naomi's public credit. He denied designing the scheme.
Voss had promised him the CEO role if he signed Simone's certificate and staged the launch failure as sabotage.
Adrian produced messages. They were real and incomplete.
Simone recovered the missing thread: Voss coordinating the blacklist with three competitors.
The architect was now named, but Adrian still held the proxy votes needed to remove him.
