Immediately, the player asked, "what can I do now! How can I reduce the time? I have piles of FP's to spend!"
Any ideas?
In the first place, is the player expecting such a campaign? Address the why of his question.
Here are some suggestions:
1) Spin the message - spread counter rumors (which in this case could be the truth, that someone was out to ruin the company)
2) Call in markers - one does not do business without making enemies and vice versa, the company would have friends and allies, some who would not look kindly on this enemy
3) (If I was the player and didn't want to deal with such things) FATE POINT DECLARATION: The fire that burnt London down? Well, the enemy is crispy now. Without the enemy giving those plots impetus, they die a natural death.
