With the place hushed, as he stands in his office, thoughts start to sway in the mind of Benedict—ideas, plans, desperate attempts to find an outlet to crawl out of a mess that threatens to consume him. His mind recalled the long hours he had dedicated to this company, the relationships he had sacrificed, and all the things he had put aside. He clenched his fists, regretting more than just his business, as it also cut deep into his personal psyche.

At that moment, Benedict's phone vibrated on the table. He reached to pick it up, thinking it might be another update from Darren or the accounting team. But when he opened the screen, he felt a shock in his heart upon seeing a woman he did not want to talk to—a woman who might unsettle him again: his mother, Teresa. He hadn't called her in days, ashamed of how much of a mess his life had become.

He hesitated for a moment before answering, "Hi, Mom."

"Benedict," her voice was warm but laced with concern. "Are you all right? You sound tired.

    Her mind wandered to Saben Thompson’s calm strength, to Jenny White’s defiance, to JM’s letter.The faces of the people she tried to break haunted her. Not out of guilt, but out of truth.They had moved on.She hadn’t.The empire was gone.Her beauty had faded.Her voice once powerful enough to command rooms now barely a whisper.But deep inside, in a corner of her fractured heart, she understood something at last.Power doesn’t die when you lose. It dies when you forget who you are.She pressed her hand against her chest, whispering to the silence:“I was Eva Ross. And I forgot to be human.”Tears slipped down her cheeks again, silent, unstoppable. For the first time, she wasn’t Eva the manipulator, Eva the queen, Eva the perfect face on every magazine.She was just a woman broken, stripped bare, facing herself.The guards passed by, barely glancing inside. Another inmate whispered a prayer. Somewhere far away, thunder rolled soft, distant.Eva looked up at the small slice of moon

    The next day.It was quiet again.For the first time in months, Thompson Enterprises breathed peace.The chaos, the lawsuits, the media storms all had finally stilled, like waves that had beaten the shore too long.The offices buzzed with steady work once more, laughter echoing through the glass halls. The air was lighter. Brighter. Whole again.Inside the executive suite, Saben Thompson stood by the wide glass window, sunlight painting gold on his face.Below, the city pulsed with life a heartbeat of resilience.“Back to normal,” Clara murmured softly beside him, placing a stack of finalized reports on his desk. “No scandals, no leaked stories, no sabotage. It almost feels… strange.”Saben smiled faintly, the weight in his eyes replaced by quiet calm. “That’s what peace feels like. You forget it exists until it’s finally here.”Zina Bank had just left after their partnership renewal. Jenny White’s latest campaign had gone viral a comeback not of revenge, but of redemption. The inve

    The news spread like wildfire.On each screen, each financial ticker, every whisper in the corporate world, announced one and the same shocking headline:“EVA ROSS — FALL OF A MEDIA EMPRESS.”“ROSS GLOBAL FILES FOR BANKRUPTCY JM REESE UNDER INVESTIGATION.”“INVESTORS WITHDRAW BILLIONS IN WAKE OF SCANDAL.”Inside the Thompson Tower, the mood was one of incredulity and grim satisfaction.For months, they had put up with Eva's manipulations: the rumors, the sabotage, the quiet threats that masqueraded as business.Now, the storm had finally turned against her.Saben Thompson stood at his office window, gazing out at the skyline through a haze of late-morning sunlight. The city below was abuzz with chaos-reporters running, cameras flashing, the media world burning under the fallout of Eva Ross's empire.Behind him, Clara turned the pages of the morning's financial briefings, her brows furrowed. "It's everywhere," she muttered, laying yet another report on his desk. "Ross Global finally d

    The empire was dying.Ross Global Media had once been a symbol of innovation, glamour, and fear, but it had since wilted into a tower of broken screens and bleeding numbers.Every monitor inside the 54th floor flashed red.STOCKS DOWN 89%. INVESTORS WITHDRAW. LAWSUITS FILED.The air was thick with panic. Assistants ran from cubicle to cubicle, heels clattering on marble floors, voices trembling as they yelled into phones. Lawyers filled the corridors. The boardroom smelled of burnt nerves and stale coffee.And at the centre of it all sat Eva Ross, silent, still, terribly quiet.She was almost beautiful in her ruin: her black dress immaculately tailored, her lipstick perfect, her eyes sunk. The screens reflected against her face, painting her features in the flickering red glow of collapse.Her assistant was trembling as he came forward, his hands shaking. “M-Miss Ross, investors from Tokyo, Dubai, and London just announced they’re pulling out. The SEC confirmed the probe into your off

    The city was gray that morning too quiet for a place that never slept. JM Reese stood by his office window, the skyline stretching before him like a battlefield after war. Once, it had looked like opportunity. Now, it looked like ruin.The screens on his desk glowed red Ross Global Media: STOCKS DOWN 73%, Zina Bank Withdraws Partnership, Thompson Holdings Reconsiders Deal.Every headline was a wound he couldn’t bandage.His temples throbbed as he gripped the edge of his desk. This can’t be happening.But it was. The empire he’d built his blood, his brilliance, his sleepless nights—was collapsing, and every headline screamed one name louder than his:Eva Ross.The door creaked open. His assistant, trembling, stepped in with a tablet in hand.“Sir… the board just called. They’re demanding a statement before noon. The SEC has opened a probe into Eva’s offshore accounts. Some… investors are filing suit against Ross Global and”JM lifted a hand, his voice raw. “Just stop.”The assistant fr

    Tension in the room was stifling.The air between them was like electricity dense, charged, poised to detonate.Eva Ross stood against the glass wall of JM Reese's office, her reflection blurred against the New York city lights below. Her jaw was locked, her perfectly manicured nails digging into her palm. She'd just come in from the board meeting that became a disaster, where her temper had again hijacked the attention.Now, JM remained on the other side of the room, his face impossible to read, the tendons in his neck stretched tight with rage. The quiet between them was a shout louder than any word."Eva," JM spoke finally, his voice tight but shaking with contained rage. "What do you actually want?"She turned, blazing eyes. "What do you mean, what do I want? I want what belongs to me! I want what we created together! I want you!"He let out a sharp breath, striding toward his desk. "I already picked you. Is that not sufficient?" He smacke
