The women immediately shifted their wide, calculating eyes to Maxwell, leaning in to frantically whisper to each other.

Who was this guy? How on earth did Natasha—the girl they had universally agreed was destined to marry a spreadsheet—bag someone who looked like a CEO and drove a car worth more than their collective mortgages?

"Who is he?" one of the aunts hissed, gripping her champagne glass a little tighter. "Does anyone know him?"

"I've never seen him before in my life," her friend replied,

    The judge reached for her handbag. “I should head back. I have an early docket tomorrow morning.”“Wait a moment,” her brother said.He reached inside his heavy wool coat and pulled out three thick, bulging envelopes. Without a word, he dropped them flat onto the white tablecloth.The judge froze.The comfortable smile on her face vanished instantly. “What is that?”“A little something for you,” her brother replied smoothly.He pushed the envelopes across the table until they rested inches from her hand.She did not touch them. Instead, she leaned back against her chair, her expression freezing over.“Take those back right now.”“Come on,” her brother said with a helpless chuckle. “Don't be like that.”“I said take them back.”The warmth between siblings had evaporated. Her voice was colder than ice.“Why are you making this difficult?” her brother asked, leaning back.“Because I agreed to do you a favor,” she said, staring straight into his eyes. “I never agreed to be paid for it!”W

    Arthur glared at Maxwell and Julian as if he had just been slapped across the mouth!His face turned an ugly shade of dark red, the veins along his neck swelling with sudden outrage!"How dare you!" Arthur shouted, his voice filled with fury. "How dare both of you stand there and question my loyalty to this company! I spent twenty-five years at Marcus Sterling's side building this business while you were nobody! And now you dare accuse me of playing spy for an outside supplier?"The two directors beside him kept their heads lowered, completely unwilling to get caught in the blast radius.Arthur turned his furious glare entirely onto Maxwell.“No one is accusing you of anything,” Maxwell said calmly. “We're asking a question.”“Oh, fuck off.” Arthur sneered with bitter disgust. Without another word, he spun around on his heel and stormed toward the double doors. The two directors hurried out right behind him, pulling the heavy doors shut with a sharp click.Inside the office, Julian la

    Arthur had been watching the broadcast from down the hall. To an old-guard director who cared only about smooth quarterly dividends and avoiding friction, this was an absolute catastrophe. In his mind, an untested heir had picked a fight with an established partner, walked into court, and gotten humiliated in front of the entire country during his very first week in office. “Maxwell!” Arthur called out, stopping five feet from the desk and pointing a finger at the blank screen. “Have you seen what is happening outside?! The whole city is laughing at us! Channel Eight just broadcast Jay Harcourt claiming our entire initiative is dead!” Maxwell remained seated behind the desk. He did not look flustered by Arthur and the other two seniors Aura’s. Hell he did not even look particularly interested in speaking to Arthur right now. And that was because at this point, Maxwell was simply tired of Arthur running into his office every time someone outside Sterling Industries made enoug

    “Imogen?” Jay scoffed loudly, waving his hand with utter contempt. “Just a nobody. A workshop girl who got ahead of herself.”Across the glass desk, Rowan’s eyebrows lifted. He leaned forward, catching the sudden shift in atmosphere.Up until this point, when Rowan asked Jay a question, he would answer immediately, but this time not only did he hesitate, his tone changed and he couldn't hide the hurt and hate in his voice.“A workshop girl?” Rowan asked, his eyes narrowing with keen professional interest. “Interesting. You didn’t hesitate once when we were talking about Maxwell Sterling. But the moment I mentioned Imogen Bell, suddenly you don’t want to talk. What happened between you two?”Jay felt the heat rising in his collar. Being reminded of the humiliation he suffered at Bell Precision that morning made his blood boil all over again.He scoffed without saying anything and looked away. “I don't want to talk about it.” He declared.“Fair enough. If it’s too personal, we’ll leave

    Hazel leaned towards the phone.“The proposal includes thirty million for modernisation and another thirty million through the expansion facility. I’ll ask Legal and Finance what support can be made available under the order.”“The new equipment can wait,” Imogen replied. “Right now, I need to keep the workers we already have.”Bell’s employees had not concealed agreements or dragged anyone into court. Yet they were the ones whose wages were becoming uncertain!Sterling could afford to argue in court for months. Bell could not tell hundreds of workers to wait that long for their wages. What use would Maxwell’s promised contract be if the factory had already closed by the time he could give it to them?Maxwell looked at Hazel.“Get Philip’s figures. Wages, urgent supplier payments, everything they need to keep operating. I want a funding proposal today that our lawyers have checked against the order.”Victoria turned to Hazel. “Have Finance join you. Philip needs an answer today.”Maxw

    The black executive sedan glided into the private underground garage of Sterling Tower, the security gates rolling shut behind them.Maxwell and Natasha took the private elevator to the executive floor.Across the lounge, the wall monitors displayed footage from the courthouse. Jay Harcourt’s smug face appeared beneath a banner claiming Sterling’s six-hundred-million-dollar initiative had been halted!Several assistants looked up as Maxwell passed.The order concerned the disputed Harcourt orders, but anyone watching that broadcast would think his entire initiative had collapsed!Maxwell entered his office. Natasha followed and closed the door.Not long afterwards, Hazel, Julian and Kieran arrived, followed by Victoria.“Well, that was humiliating,” Julian said. “Losing to those rats. Jay will be talking about this for the next ten years.”Victoria sat opposite Maxwell.“He’ll have plenty of listeners. Every manufacturer considering your offer will be watching what you do now.”“I kno
