I hope Ves will act against the Republic. Leave the Company and start a new solo one with 100%. Dont give anyone Stocks (not his family not his helper). If the Larksions act against him he should leave the family as well. This is not is dream? He wants total controll and creat Mechs with X-factor. With 49% they can stir the Company into mass production. And i hope the Military arc will end soon. I liked Ves the most in his shop with his cat with some adventure (not as long as this military arc).
Raella has turned out to be quite the beast of a Mech duelling pilot. I wonder if she'll be another expert pilot? [Venerable Raella]! As for the money grubbers back home, if Calsie and Benjamin can come up with an effective stalling tactic until Ves returns, I'm sure he'll be able to clean house and settle the issue with the money grubbers.
