ELENA’s POV

The sun was shining through the windows of the big bedroom. I was sitting up in bed, drinking the tea Julian had made for me.

I felt much better than I did during the night. The pain in my stomach was gone, but my heart still felt heavy. I kept thinking about Mark. I wondered where he was. I wondered if he was worried about me.

Julian was standing by the window. He was looking at his phone. He looked very serious. He turned around and looked at me.

"Elena," he said. "There is some

    The head lawyer stepped forward, opening his heavy black leather briefcase. He walked down the side of the table, and with smooth, practiced movements, he dropped a thick white document with a certified gold seal in front of Arthur Pendelton, Mr. Thomas, Mr. Miller, and Mr. Vance. He placed the final copy directly in front of Susan."What is this trash?" Vivienne asked, picking up the folder with two fingers as if it were dirty."Open it, Miss Carnegie," Mr. Abernathy said coldly. "That document is a certified copy of the Callum Carnegie Irrevocable Trust and Asset Transfer, registered and notarized five years ago with the Federal Banking and Corporate Registry."The boardroom became completely silent. The only sound was the rapid rustling of paper as the six independent board members opened the folders.Arthur Pendelton’s eyes scanned the first page. His hands began to shake. He looked up at Elena, then at the document, then down at Susan. "My God... Susan, look at the signature. Lo

    The sun rose over the city at 6:00 AM, but the sky was covered in thick, dark gray clouds that threatened more rain.Inside the private club, Elena stood in front of a tall mirror in the dressing room. Julian had ordered a new outfit for her the previous night, and a premium boutique had delivered it before dawn. She wore a perfectly tailored midnight-blue suit jacket with matching trousers and a crisp white silk blouse. Her long dark hair was tied back into a neat, smooth bun.The door opened quietly, and Julian walked in. He looked magnificent in a dark gray three-piece suit with a black tie. His hair was perfectly styled, and his face was calm, though his eyes carried a sharp, intense focus. He walked up behind her, placing his large hands gently on her shoulders."You look beautiful, Elena," Julian said, his deep voice vibrating against her back. Elena turned around to face him, her fingers tightly clutching her mother's leather-bound diary, which she had wrapped in a small silk

    Susan stopped pacing. She looked at her reflection in the long gold mirror. A slow, cruel smile began to form on her thin lips. Her eyes turned dark and malicious.Susan walked over to her nightstand and picked up her private smartphone. She unlocked it and scrolled down her contact list until she stopped at a name: Donald - The City Daily.Donald was not a regular reporter. He was the owner of the most vicious, corrupt tabloid website in the country. He didn't care about facts or truth. He only cared about scandalous headlines that got millions of views, and he was always willing to print lies if someone paid him enough money."Mother, what are you doing?" Sebastian asked, stepping closer. "Are you calling the press?""Listen to me, Sebastian," Susan said, her voice dropping into a cold, steady tone. "Tomorrow morning, Elena will try to take the company. But what happens if the entire world believes she is a thief? What happens if the public thinks she is a fake?""But the DNA test i

    The clock on the wall of the private club showed 1:00 AM. Outside, the city streets were quiet and wet from the night rain. Inside the warm dining room, three large tables had been pushed together. They were completely covered in thick stacks of white papers, financial folders, and legal charts.Two of Julian’s lawyers, Mr. Abernathy and a younger woman named Sarah, were typing quickly on their laptops. The only sounds in the room were the clicking of keys, the turning of pages, and the soft breathing of little Leo, who was fast asleep under his blue blanket on the wide leather sofa.Elena sat at the head of the main table. Her eyes were red from tiredness, but she refused to close them. In front of her sat a large white poster board. Julian had used a black marker to draw a big chart on it. The chart showed the structure of Carnegie Global Shipping. At the very top, Julian had written one name in bold letters: ELENAJulian walked over from the coffee station, carrying two warm mugs.

    Elena stood near the heavy steel doors of the bank vault, her fingers still gripping her mother’s old diary. Julian held the blue legal folder safely under his arm. He took her hand, and together they walked back up the cold concrete stairs to the main level.Instead of going out through the grand front lobby, the bank manager, led them down a side hallway. "This door leads directly into the private underground parking garage, Mr. Vane," the manager said quietly. "It is more secure.""Thank you," Julian said.The manager swiped his card, and the heavy door opened into the dim, chilly parking lot. The air smelled like exhaust and cold concrete. A few rows away, the gray sedan was parked with its engine running quietly. Through the dark tinted glass of the back window, Elena could see that little Leo was still asleep, his small head resting peacefully against the seat. Marcus was in the driver’s seat, keeping a watchful eye on the mirrors.But as Julian and Elena stepped out onto the

    The gray sedan pulled up smoothly to the side entrance of the Central Heritage Bank. The building was massive, made of old, heavy gray stone with giant marble pillars at the front. It looked like a fortress from another century. It was a place where the richest families in the world kept their deepest secrets.Marcus stopped the car in a quiet loading zone. "We are here, Mr. Vane." "Good. Marcus, stay with the car and keep the engine running," Julian said. He unbuckled his seatbelt and looked back at Elena. "Leo is asleep. It is better if Marcus stays here to watch him. He will be safe in the car with the doors locked. You and I will go inside."Elena looked down at little Leo. He was breathing softly, totally asleep. She kissed his forehead gently. "Okay. Marcus, please lock the doors immediately." "I will protect him with my life, Miss Elena," Marcus said seriously.Elena took a deep breath. She grabbed her small purse, making sure the white envelope and the silver key were safel
