[Maria]

Hearing those unexpected words, my eyes widened instantly. I even forgot how to blink. My brows furrowed in confusion as I looked at my father, who seemed completely serious.

Me? The successor?

"You're going to hand this company over," I asked uncertainly, "to me?"

"Yes."

This was beyond anything I had expected.

"Right now, I have a professional serving as CEO. An outsider, not a member of our family. Obviously I can't leave my company to him," Father gestured toward me with his palm fa

    [Maria]A safe place...I couldn't stop thinking about what Damian had said this afternoon. It kept me from considering what my father had said.I couldn't help but think Damian was trying to manipulate me by saying that. Trying to cut me off from my family so I'd have no one left but him. It scared me a little.My father had just reached out to me, and Damian was trying to stop me from taking his hand.Damian didn't understand the dilemma I was in. People say blood is thicker than water. My father is the only person I'm related to by blood. No matter how little space there is for me in his heart, I'm still his daughter. At the very least, I want him to accept me as his daughter.As for marriage? I have to admit, it could end at any time.Especially with someone like Damian. If even my father could have another woman and have a child like me, then what about Damian? No one knows what the future holds. I haven't even known him for a year.How can he be so sure he can provide a safer pl

    [Maria]I turned my face away without responding.Damian said that because he didn't know what Father had said. He assumed things without asking what Father had offered me. But even if I explained it, Damian probably still wouldn't understand.Damian would never understand how much this offer meant to someone who had always been an outsider in her own family.The sound of footsteps approached me from behind. I turned my head."You're still here? Aren't you going to look around?" Father greeted me first before turning to Damian. "Oh, so you're here too, Damian.""Not yet. I wanted to take a short break first." I answered.

The successor?"You're going to hand this company over," I asked uncertainly, "to me?""Yes."This was beyond anything I had expected."Right now, I have a professional serving as CEO. An outsider, not a member of our family. Obviously I can't leave my company to him," Father gestured toward me with his palm facing up. "It has to be you.""How many years in prison could Cecilia get?" I asked bluntly. "I know you're asking me to become your successor because Cecilia's been arrested. But maybe you won't need me if it's only one or two years? You could shorten her sentence, couldn't you?""Why would I?" Father snorted. "She has to take responsibility for what she's done."I had to admit, I was happy. Even if I was only the second choice, hearing Father take my side instead of Cecilia's made me feel chose

    [Maria]"Ines, turn the car around. We're going to Wang Industries," I ordered as soon as I read my father's message.Without questioning me, Ines immediately did as I asked. I replied to my father with a brief confirmation, then the car sped toward his office.Wang Industries was actually close to RQL Group's headquarters. I had worked there before, but only for a short time and never in an important position because I had never been raised to become the successor.Cecilia, on the other hand, had been given a much more strategic position from the very beginning.But now the daughter who had been expected to take over was in prison. I didn't know how long she would remain there, but one

    [Maria]"Golden brown on the outside and cooked through on the inside," Mrs. Jones said as she set down the thermometer she had used to check the internal temperature of the chicken katsu I made. "Good job, Maria."Steph, Nancy, and Margie looked at me with smiles on their faces.Everyone in my group received praise today. It was the first time we had prepared the meal separately. I was responsible for the katsu, Steph made the rice and salad, while Nancy and Margie prepared the veggie curry.It was actually quite enjoyable being solely responsible for one dish. It felt like I was really cooking.“This is the last session of my general cooking class. Of course, you're welcome to apply to take the class again or try another one. But I think everyone has improved a lot since the first session," Mrs. Jones said to the class after evaluating everyone's dishes.I felt the same way. Then again, during the first session, I really couldn't do anything. I mean, that day I even managed to cut m

    [Cecilia]Cecilia was deeply worried. Ethan had been unreachable for nearly two weeks. Not only did he never answer his phone, but it had been completely switched off.That wasn't like Ethan at all.Could he be dead?No. Ethan dying without leaving a trace would actually be the most optimistic scenario. What if he'd been arrested? Cecilia couldn't dismiss that possibility, even though Ethan had already fled to Mexico.She turned off her phone, slipped it into the dashboard compartment, and walked into the house."You're home late again," her father remarked without even looking at her."Don't be like that, Richard. Maybe Cecilia had a

    [Cecilia]The house had been noisy since early morning. There were the clatter of cooks preparing dishes, gardeners arranging orchids by the entrance, and maids who usually cleaned the house in silence. They were always busy when important days like this rolled around.The Wang family were used to a

    [Maria]Damian wasn’t here when I woke up this morning. The curtains in my room were still closed even though it was already 10 a.m. There were no sounds of a vacuum cleaner or footsteps in the hallway. The maid probably hadn’t come up to the second floor yet.I splashed water on my face at the sink
