    The Howard family went bankrupt.Luke, once the untouchable young master of the capital, fell overnight into deep debt.The mansion was auctioned off, and his luxury cars were repossessed. Even a simple home became a luxury he could no longer afford.The so-called friends who once surrounded him scattered the moment he fell. Some even stepped over him to curry favor with the Quinn family.Adrian and Zayden, his so-called brothers-in-arms, were no better off. One family collapsed into ruin, and the other ended up behind bars. The entire circle that once ruled the capital's elite scene had quietly disintegrated.As for Charlotte, she was sentenced to ten years for commercial fraud and illegal fundraising.It was said that she had desperately tried to maintain her lavish lifestyle after losing Luke's backing, even going so far as to cross a line she could never return from.In prison, she cried until her voice broke, repeating that she regretted returning home and provoking Whitn

    When their soft tactics failed, Luke and the others turned to business pressure to force Whitney into submission.They joined forces with several companies in the capital city, attempting to block the Quinn Corporation's operations in the city and using their connections to stall its project approvals.At the same time, they flooded the media with rumors—claiming Emery was a warlord who rose through illegal means and a barbaric killer unworthy of Whitney, hoping public opinion would tear them apart."Emery is nothing but a brute! Whitney has been brainwashed. We have to save her!" Luke publicly declared at a business gala. His eyes were wild with obsession.He wanted to prove that only a refined heir like himself was worthy of Whitney.However, they had underestimated both Emery and Whitney.Emery was not just a mining magnate. He was a financial titan.His overseas assets were worth ten times more than the Howard Corporation. Every cent of his empire had been built through bloo

    Luke was unwilling to accept it.He refused to believe that Whitney had truly fallen in love with that barbaric man.It must be Emery forcing her. It must be her way of taking revenge on him. That had to be it.In the days that followed, Luke pursued her like a madman.He filled the space outside her company building with 9,999 red roses—the same flowers she used to love.Standing in the public square with a megaphone, he shouted without caring about his image, "Winnie! I know you're still angry with me! I know you still have me in your heart!"What happened back then was just an act! We only wanted you to learn independence! I never loved Charlotte. I've always only loved you! Please, just give me a chance to explain!"His friends also joined in, holding up banners that read: [Winnie, come home!]"Yes, Winnie, please come back! We did it all for your own good! Look at how successful you are now. That's exactly what we wanted! Can't you understand our intentions?"Crowds gathe

    The meeting lasted three hours.Whitney displayed astonishing business acumen and negotiation skills.She advanced step by step, never giving an inch. She had full command of every data point, maximizing Xander Corporation's interests while securing absolute control for the Quinn Corporation.Luke's gaze was on her the entire time.He watched her confidently present her arguments and sharply dismantle the opposition's points. He saw the calm, commanding authority in every gesture she made.Was this really the same Whitney who once could not even open a soda can by herself, who needed someone to carry her when it rained?What had she gone through in these three years? How much pain had she endured to forge this armor?After the meeting, she packed up her documents and left without hesitation.Luke and his friends could no longer hold back and cornered her in the underground parking garage."Winnie! You're finally back! We've been looking for you for the last three years! Do you

    Three years, 1095 days and nights.For Luke and the others, it was a prolonged execution, a never-ending act of atonement.Luke quit smoking and drinking. He never stepped foot in entertainment venues again. The once-proud heir of the capital's elite circle had become silent and hollowed out, reduced to skin and bone.He worked himself relentlessly, doubling the size of the Howard Corporation, yet he lived like an ascetic monk.Whenever the Xander family ran into trouble, he was always the first to step in. It was not for recognition, but for a single word about Whitney from Old Master Xander.Even just three words—"She's doing well,"—would be enough to make his eyes turn red with relief for half a day.However, the old man's heart was made of iron. He never said a word. It was as though Whitney had never existed at all.His friends had also cut ties with Charlotte. The so-called 'independent woman project' collapsed soon after its funding disappeared.Adrian and Zayden ended

    After being kicked out of the Xander residence, Luke felt as though his spine had been completely ripped out.He leaned against the door of his Maybach, clutching the diamond ring stained with sewer grime tightly, his knuckles white.Adrian squatted by the roadside, lighting one cigarette after another. His hands were shaking so badly that he could barely press the lighter."Luke, what do we do now? Winnie really left… And she went to Africa. I heard there's a war raging over there, and there are infectious diseases too!"She's so delicate. Even a mosquito bite used to make her cry for half a day. She could die in a place like that."Zayden's eyes were red. His voice broke. "Did we go too far? If something really happens to Winnie, I'll never forgive myself for the rest of my life."Just then, the roar of an engine shattered the dead silence.A red Ferrari pulled over. Charlotte stepped out in 3-inch-high heels.She glanced at the group of defeated young heirs, her brows slight
