Although Max hadn't revealed himself as the Chairman of the Billion Bloodline group, he still carried the weight of authority. He could quietly make decisions that others would never question, all without revealing that he was the one truly in charge. The role of an "intern" was nothing more than a mask, a convenient cover that allowed him to operate from the shadows.
Because of this hidden position, Max also had complete access to the surveillance system that stretched across the building. The Fortis group had invested heavily in security, and when Max took over, he inherited not just their headquarters but their web of cameras as well. Every corner of the building could be observed, every face that entered could be watched.
