This morning’s board meeting took place in the central conference room—a room where the cold comes not only from the air conditioning, but also from the atmosphere of the higher-ups who are used to role-playing. I’m sitting at the end of a long table, directly facing the directors, division heads, and senior advisors who have always considered me a symbolic heir, not a decision-maker.

But today, they will see me differently.

On the projector screen, there was a document that I opened slowly.

“This is an internal investigation report on the effectiveness of logistics vendors and potential budget leaks in the distribution chain,” I said calmly. “We found indications of fictitious spending through sub-vendors that never actually delivered goods.”

One of the finance directors—Mr. Bernard, an older gentleman who used to be close to Lucas—directly chimed in, “Is this an accusation, or just speculation? Because if we’re talking about vendors, there are a lot of names that have been worki

    The following days felt like our world consisted of only two people—Matthias and me. It was as if we had managed to steal a little time from the universe to hide away.I woke up first. The sunlight fell on Matthias's face as he slept soundly beside me. His hair was slightly messy, and there was a faint line from the pillow on his cheek. I smiled slightly. It was rare to see him so completely relaxed. Usually, his face was tense, thinking about strategies, meetings, or big plans. But here... he was just the man I loved, without a care in the world.I got up slowly, trying not to wake him. My bare feet touched the cold wooden floor of the inn, and I walked to the window. From there, I could see green rice fields stretching out with a thin mist still hanging over them. The wind carried the damp scent of the earth. It felt so peaceful."I prefer the view from here." Matthias's hoarse voice sounded behind me.I turned around, and he was already sitting on the bed, staring at me with half-c

    I woke up when the morning light slipped through the thin curtains. The sound of roosters crowing in the distance reminded me that I was not in Berlin or New York, but in a small village in Sumatra, in a simple room that somehow felt warmer than any hotel suite.My hand was still trapped in Matthias' embrace. His chest rose and fell calmly with regular breaths. His face looked so peaceful when he slept, a stark contrast to the tension I usually saw when he talked about big plans or when we faced the media.I stared at him for a long time. To be honest, part of me still found it hard to believe how I had ended up here. I, Sara, who was always haunted by the past, who had failed in marriage, who was constantly forced to be strong—now lay in the arms of a man who saw me not as the heir to the Smith family, not as a CEO, not as a foundation icon, but simply... Sara.He moved slightly, then his eyes opened slowly. A smile spread across his lips when he saw me. "Good morning, my love," he m

    The team from the national media center sent a message to my team saying that they were retracting the headline. They admitted that they were embarrassed for having published news that had led to negative public opinion. At the same time, they apologized to me and the Arini Foundation. Vera read it with a small smile."If the media can feel embarrassed... maybe we still have hope for this world. A few days later, I stood in front of the participants of the Silent School. This time, it was not to talk about the program, but to read out the name that we would use as the official name of the women's training center: Arini Building.I stood under the new nameplate, which was still covered with cloth.Matt and Vera stood on my right and left. We all smiled—smiles full of hope that one day, this school would become an agent of change for women in this country. Rachel nodded from behind, signaling that I could begin the ceremony. I slowly removed the cloth, and small letters began to appe

    I recorded the clarification video in a quiet little library room, one day after the bad news touched my mother's name. There was no fancy backdrop or studio lighting. Just me, an old wooden table, and a simple camera recording every bit of emotion in my voice and gaze.I wore a plain white top. My hair was loosely tied back and my face was bare of makeup, because I wanted the world to see my sincerity in this endeavor.Matt signaled that I could start talking, because he had already pressed record. I smiled softly. He gave me a playful wink—giving me encouragement and strength with his cute gesture—then stepped out of the room. Besides, he didn't want to interfere with what I was about to say. He knew that everything had to come from me, because I was the one who understood best—because I was Arini's daughter. I took a deep breath, then began to speak. "I know that my friends have read a lot in the last few days, especially about my mother's name. About the history that has been re

    PART 46We landed in Padang with light hearts. Not because everything was finished, but because for the first time, I could call this struggle "ours," not just "mine."Matt held my bag as we walked out of the airport. "Welcome to the real frontline," he whispered. We smiled, both knowing that places like this needed a voice. Not just seminars and lectures. A small village at the foot of the Agam hills was the first location for Sekolah Sunyi. A simple wooden building, flower murals on the walls, and dozens of women of all ages who had come. Their faces showed uncertainty, but also curiosity.I stood in front of them that afternoon, with Matt and the local team. I didn't feel superior standing in front of them. Instead, I felt a deep empathy when I looked at their faces. At the very least, I knew some of the sad stories from the local team who had done their research beforehand. "We are not here to give advice," I said. "We are here to listen. Because your situation is not a weaknes

    PART 45“The delegation from Brussels will arrive this afternoon,” Rachel said at the Monday morning meeting. “They want to review how the Arini Division is being run after the restructuring.”I nodded. “Prepare the documents, show them everything transparently. They need to see that we are being honest.”Rachel hesitated for a moment. “One more thing…”I turned my head.“The head of the delegation is Elise Wagner.”A second of silence, enough to make the entire room hold its breath.I nodded again—his time more slowly.“Alright. We’ll welcome her with the necessary formalities.”But inside my chest, something opened up again.Elise arrived that afternoon, on time as usual. Her hair neatly tied back with a white blazer hug her body. Not too formal, but sufficiently distant. I stood to greet her in the foundation’s lobby. “Elise,” I said. “Sara,” she replied. A faint smile. Cold, but not insulting. Like someone who knew she wasn’t there as a guest, but not as a friend either.W
