Chief Architect
A business owner considers his options.
As a black billionaire he had more problems than most people could count. Antitrust officers hounded him. Tax collectors threatened him. And his wife felt cold. His days as the CEO would be numbered. He wanted to be the chief architect of programming at his tech company in Wilmington, Delaware.
It took him no time to accept the fact that the firm would be handed over to his protege, Amanthia Staughton. She knew probably more than he did as he had not been engaged in programming in decades. He was too busy schmoozing with lobbyists to keep his company strong.
