She wanted to fix things, yet she realized she did not even have the strength to hold onto the last piece of hope.The calm in my eyes crushed her more than any insult ever could.Her hand trembled as she signed her name on the agreement.When we walked out of the law firm, the sunlight was warm and bright.Yara was leaning against the car, waiting for me. When she saw me, she opened the door.“It is over.”“Yeah. It is all over.” I got into the car and glanced back one last time.Ruby was still standing there, like a weathered statue left behind by time. I looked away, and there were no more ripples, no more feelings.At the end of the story, Ruby’s company collapsed under the weight of its own credibility crisis and massive compensation claims.She was buried under an astronomical amount of debt, falling from the clouds straight into the mud.People said she had been seen at a nightclub, working as a hostess, reeking of alcohol.Sometimes she would look up, staring toward

I knew she was talking about me.I looked at her confident, glowing face on the TV screen, then turned it off.Take your time, Ruby. Fly a little higher, so the fall would hurt even more. That was what I thought.I had Maddox send the report anonymously to the National Medical Products Administration.At the same time, I forwarded the digital copy to several well‑known professional review agencies in the industry, the kind famous for being strict and uncompromising.I did not explain anything.I only added one sentence.[For conscience’s sake.]After that, I gave my father some time off and sent him and my mother overseas for a vacation.I did not want them caught in the storm that was coming.One week later, the bomb dropped.An official notice was released on the NMPA’s website.Ruby’s company was ordered to immediately pull PureSource Essence from shelves nationwide, issue a full recall, and undergo formal investigation.The notice clearly stated that the product contai

“She was able to push the bank to call in the loans because our cash‑flow management had problems.“These were not unsolvable issues. We just needed to make changes.”My father stayed silent for a long time. He looked at me, his eyes full of complicated emotions. In the end, he placed all his hopes on me and gave a firm nod.“Alright. The company… I am handing it over to you.“However, do not go begging Ruby.”He looked straight at me, speaking slowly and clearly. “Remember this. The Baker family could fail, yet we would never bow our heads.”“I understand.”I took control of the company.The first thing I did was invest all the remaining liquid funds into developing a new product.It was a sleep‑aid fragrance based on a refined natural botanical formula.In my previous life, after my father’s company went bankrupt, that formula had been bought cheaply by another company. Once launched, it quickly took over the market.This time, it was going to shine in our own hands.Duri

He grabbed my arm and pulled me into a corner of the stairwell, lowering his voice.“Who are you, really. What do you want.”“I want to help you.” I met his eyes. “And I want to help all the consumers who have been kept in the dark.”“Help me.” He let out a bitter laugh. “How are you going to help me. Do you even know what I have lost over this? I have been blacklisted from the industry. My wife divorced me. Even my kid will not acknowledge me anymore.“I am nothing now. Just a joke.” His voice shook, his eyes red with emotion.I waited quietly until he finished venting. “I know you have evidence.”I spoke calmly. “A lab report showing that the raw materials in PureSource Essence contain banned substances.”He stared at me in shock. “How do you know that.”“That is not important.” I handed him a business card. “What matters is whether you want the truth to come out. Whether you want the people who look down on you to pay for what they have done.”“I do not have money. I do not

He threw out a few last insults, all bark and no bite, then clutched his so‑called treasure and ran off in embarrassment.Just like that, the farce ended.I knew exactly what this was. Natasha had probably sent him to cause trouble, and a cheap trick like that only made me laugh.However, something else came up that I could not ignore.Yara told me my father’s company had run into serious trouble. Several long‑time clients had suddenly terminated their contracts without warning. The bank had also started pushing for loan repayments.The company’s cash flow tightened almost overnight.My father’s business was a traditional high‑end timber supplier that had been running steadily for decades, so there was no way so many problems would appear all at once. There could only be one explanation. Someone was working behind the scenes.The only person with both the ability and the motive was Ruby.Using the people I cared about most to threaten me.You were really something now, Ruby, I

For a while, Shane Studio rose to fame almost overnight. Media outlets started seeking me out. I gave interviews, and my professional skills and restoration philosophy were widely shared.My studio was no longer relying on word of mouth alone. Real, proven expertise began to draw in a steady stream of clients.One day, while I was restoring a damaged antique, an unexpected visitor showed up.It was Ruby’s mother, Natasha.Her usual arrogance was gone. She looked worn out, her expression carrying a hint of forced friendliness.“Jeff, this place of yours is quite tasteful.” She looked around the studio, her eyes still carrying that familiar critical edge.I set down my tools and said nothing.“Jeff, I know I was wrong before. I said some harsh things. Do not take them to heart.”She pulled out a chair and sat down like she owned the place. “Look, you and Ruby have been together for so many years. Couples fight, yet it does not mean you go straight to divorce.“Ruby has been unde
