The stock price fell to rock bottom, and the company stood on the edge of bankruptcy and liquidation.

Starway Tech announced it would acquire all of its valid assets at only ten percent of market value at that point.

Sebastian asked for my opinion.

I only answered with, "This is a business decision, so you can decide."

I trusted him completely.

I knew part of it was for business expansion, and part of it was to help me finally get revenge.

He wanted Chance to watch as his career fell into our hands in the most humiliating way.

The acquisition went smoothly.

Chance had lost all decision-making power.

    Several months passed.The new energy project of Starway Tech was a huge success. The market value of the company tripled.I had my own private executive office as the project lead and as the company's partner.Outside the window was a bright city night.I stood by the floor-to-ceiling glass, watching the traffic below. I felt completely at peace.My phone vibrated softly.It was a news alert.[Former Tech Company CEO Chance Goode Sentenced to Ten Years in Prison Over Financial Fraud, Intentional Assault, and Other Charges.]Another alert followed.[Maeve Zolten's Convictions for Blackmail, Defamation, and Intentional Assault Were Upheld in the Final Ruling.]I swiped the news notifications away without hesitation.There was a knock at my office door.Sebastian walked in holding two glasses of champagne.He stepped beside me and handed one to me."What are you looking at?" he asked.I shook my head and took the glass."Nothing, just the view," I replied.He followed my

    Maeve was taken away by the police soon after.She never expected Chance to be that ruthless. He would rather burn everything down than protect her.Maeve panicked in the interrogation room and tried to save herself.She exposed every piece of dirt she had on Chance."He told me to do it! He ordered me to pour boiling water on Vera Lynn! He forged financial reports to cheat banks into giving loans! He also told me to steal business intel!"She sang like a canary, handing over secret phone recordings of her conversations with Chance, along with copied documents.She had planned to use them for blackmail, but they became criminal evidence that would be used against him instead.The police uncovered something more shocking while reviewing her communication records.The anonymous email sent to Mr. Zeke had come from Maeve.It turned out everything had been part of her plan.She had first sent the anonymous report to make Mr. Zeke distrust his company.Then, she deliberately fuel

    Chance did not give up.He went straight to Starway Tech's office building after I blocked him.He stood outside the entrance holding a huge bouquet of roses, which drew a crowd.I was discussing details of a new project with Sebastian when the front desk called me through the internal line.Sebastian frowned and asked, "Do you want security to make him leave?"I shook my head and replied, "No, I'll talk to him myself."I walked into the lobby and looked at the exhausted man outside through the glass doors.His eyes lit up when he saw me. He rushed forward but was stopped by the access system.He pressed his face against the glass and shouted hoarsely."Please, Vera, let's talk!" he begged.I pressed the intercom button and said with a cold voice, "Stop harassing me, Chance. When you allowed Maeve to pour boiling water on me, there was nothing left between us. When you trampled my dignity over a thirty-thousand-dollar penalty, we were done. When you chose an intern over the p

    That night after the summit, his company's stock began to crash.Panic spread fast.His phone rang nonstop.Chance faced questions from the board, angry calls from investors, and pressure from the media, which all overwhelmed him.Only then did he realize what he had lost.It was not only one project… It was the future of his company.He returned to his empty office and felt a deep, cutting fear for the first time.He collapsed onto a chair and stared blankly ahead.He could not understand how everything had fallen apart.A few days earlier, he had been proud of the cost-cutting policy from Maeve.He had believed he was in complete control.His phone screen lit up with a news alert.[Starway Tech Announces Exclusive Strategic Partnership with Mr. Zeke.

    "This partner shares our vision perfectly. Please welcome Starway Tech, led by Mr. Sebastian Fade!" the host announced.The spotlight snapped onto Sebastian.The smug smile on Chance's face froze.He stood stiff as a statue in the aisle, like a man who had forgotten how to move.Sebastian stood calmly and adjusted his suit collar.He glanced at me with a reassuring look, then walked toward the stage.When he passed Chance, he did not slow down at all, as if Chance was nothing more than an obstacle that was unworthy of his attention.Everyone had their attention shifted to the stage, leaving Chance to be forgotten in the aisle.His face went from pale to angry, then flushed an ugly red.He stared at me with pure disbelief and hatred.Maeve panicked. She clutched on his sleeve, and her lips were trembling, but no words came out.Sebastian began his speech on stage."Thank you to the summit organizers, and thank you to Mr. Zeke for trusting us, but today, I'm not the only star
