Kevan was aware of the prospective partnership between Blue Star Shipping and Soaring Corporation.

He had people keeping an eye on Cody's every move. Each action that Cody took was reported to Kevan in a timely manner.

However, he didn't pay much attention to this matter.

Over the past few years, Cody had been throwing money at different investments.

Thanks to Kevan pulling some strings behind the scenes, most of Cody's ventures ended up failing, resulting in a loss of billions of dollars.

Cody himself didn't have that much personal wealth to invest.

He invested in those ventures using the name of Soaring Corporation and embezzled funds from the company.

Now that all of them incurred huge losses, Cody had no way to repay the money he'd embezzled.

The board of directors in Soaring Corporation had started to question Cody about the deficit in their account books.

Because of this, Cody was struggling financially and had been desperate for ways to raise more money.
