The old Fox Group office he had painstakingly expanded seemed almost laughable compared to this.Trey stood by the floor-to-ceiling window, gazing at the city skyline beneath him. A faint, self-deprecating smile curved his lips.He had once poured every ounce of energy into the Fox Group, believing that was the pinnacle he could ever reach. Yet now, standing here and looking back, it all felt absurd."What are you thinking about?" Ariana asked, holding a file, following his gaze out the window.Trey looped an arm around her, his expression calm. "Nothing much. Just reminding myself.""Reminding yourself of what?""Why I lost back then," he said quietly.A shadow crossed Ariana's eyes, and a hint of tenderness softened her tone. "Everything that you lost… starting today, I'll help you take it back."Trey bent down and kissed her forehead, then pointed to two buildings in the distance.The Hunt Group headquarters on the left, the Morrison Pharmaceutical tower on the right.One

The next day, explosive business news swept through Goldmont City.Investors from the royal family of Yustonia had established a new company in Goldmont City—Olympus. From the outset, it made a splash, securing multiple top-tier national projects with massive investment, all concentrated in pharmaceuticals and energy.This immediately hit the headlines because, domestically—and especially in Goldmont City—these two sectors had long been monopolized by Morrison Group and Hunt Group.As expected, Hunt Group's recently acquired new energy project had its downstream partnerships abruptly cut off by Olympus. Meanwhile, Morrison Group's new drug, still under development, had its competing product preemptively announced by Olympus, scheduled to hit the market a full month earlier than planned.Industry leaders scrambled to uncover Olympus's background. The company, however, was not hiding. Reports soon confirmed it had registered capital exceeding a billion dollars, fully funded by Yuston

Ethan, however, surprised her.Now that he held full authority, he could enforce decisions regardless of others' opinions. He didn't need Khloe's backing to act—but Charlotte had already spoken on his behalf.Although Ethan felt it was unnecessary, it left him quietly satisfied. Working alongside Khloe always gave him a sense of comradeship, as if he weren't just her subordinate but a part of the lifeblood supporting Morrison Group. That kind of natural, deeply rooted responsibility was something he had never felt in the past—neither at Morrison Group nor when working under Clarice, no matter how hard he tried."Don't worry too much," he said suddenly after finishing business with Charlotte, his voice low and calm. "Everything will be fine. Morrison Group will be fine. Khloe and Nick will be fine too."Charlotte looked at him. He remained seated, head down, organizing documents, offering no extra eye contact. Yet that single, understated reassurance carried more weight than a thous

Noah suddenly pulled Charlotte close and took her hand in his.A chill ran through her palm as a card slid into her grasp."What's this…" she murmured."All my savings," Noah said, looking straight into her eyes."730,000 dollars in total. I've checked the housing market in Goldmont City. If your standards aren't too high, it should be enough for a wedding home and a car."His voice was low, steady, and sincere.Although he had said they should take things slowly, his actions moved at full speed. Back when Lacuna hadn't yet been established, he had struggled just to make ends meet. Later, when Lacuna began serving the powerful, he became Spence's trusted aide and finally amassed these savings.Originally, this money was meant to secure his own future. He had planned to travel the world, help those in need, and arrange his later years. But now, thinking of a future together with Charlotte, all that money seemed almost trivial.Noah had no parents, but Charlotte did—her mother, h

But exposing even a fraction of their negligence would change nothing about reality—and could implicate the entire medical institution.The attending physician lowered his head, neither confirming nor denying anything.Khloe rose and walked slowly toward him. "Just a risk? Are you telling me there was truly no oversight at all?"The attending physician's expression darkened further, and the other doctors nearby swallowed hard."I'm sorry, Khloe. But we… we did our best."Hearing those words, a collective sigh of relief escaped the room. Arista buried herself further into George's embrace, sobbing."Khloe, maybe this is fate… Don't be too hard on yourself. Think about the baby," George said softly, unable to imagine anything else, simply offering gentle comfort as he held her.Seeing the doctors before her hanging their heads in helplessness, Khloe's hand at her side tensed, fingers curling into a fist. Finally, she closed her eyes, drew a deep breath, and turned to leave.Once
