The boardroom felt heavier than before.No one spoke for several seconds after Alexander said those words.“Then let’s vote.”The older board members looked at each other.Some of them were loyal to Alexander.Some were nervous.And some were clearly influenced by Sophia.Ryan whispered quietly near the wall,"This is getting intense."Emily stood beside the table, still trying to understand how she had become part of this moment.Sophia leaned back in her chair."You’re confident."Alexander answered calmly."I always am."One of the senior board members finally cleared his throat."If we are voting…"He looked around the table."...then we should hear both sides clearly."Sophia nodded."Of course."She stood up slowly and walked toward the large screen again."The issue is simple."Her voice carried easily across the room."Three years ago, Knight Group absorbed Harper Logistics."Daniel Harper watched her carefully.Sophia continued."But that happened right after Daniel Harper ne

The boardroom slowly emptied after Sophia left.The tension that had filled the room for the last hour finally started to fade.Some board members quietly packed their documents.Others came over to shake Alexander’s hand."Good decision, Mr. Knight," one of them said.Alexander simply nodded.Emily watched everything quietly.For the first time since the meeting started, she felt like she could breathe again.Ryan stretched his arms."Well… that was dramatic."Daniel Harper closed his tablet."You handled it well."Alexander didn’t look particularly proud.Instead, he looked thoughtful.Emily noticed it immediately."What is it?"Alexander looked at the door Sophia had just walked through."She’s not done."Ryan groaned."Of course she’s not."Daniel nodded slowly."Sophia doesn’t walk away from a loss."Emily frowned."But she lost the vote."Daniel shook his head."No.""She just changed the battlefield."Emily didn’t fully understand that yet.But Alexander clearly did.At that mo

London morning usually started quietly.But today the atmosphere inside the Knight Group suite felt tense.Emily sat near the window with her phone still in her hand.Sophia’s words kept echoing in her mind."Women who love Alexander Knight… don’t usually survive."Ryan broke the silence first."Okay… that call was officially creepy."Daniel leaned against the table."Sophia likes psychological games."Emily barely heard them.Her mind was somewhere else.She looked at Alexander."There was another woman?"Alexander’s expression remained calm."You shouldn’t listen to Sophia."Emily frowned."You didn’t answer my question."The room grew quiet.For a moment, even Ryan stopped talking.Alexander walked toward the window.His voice stayed low."That story has nothing to do with you."Emily stood up slowly."Everything in this war suddenly has something to do with me."Alexander turned to face her.His eyes looked colder than usual."You’re involved because Sophia wants to hurt me."Emil

The press conference hall was already packed.Reporters from every major news network in London had arrived.Cameras.Lights.Microphones.Everyone was waiting for one person.Alexander Knight.Outside the building, a crowd had gathered.News vans lined the street.Because the rumor spreading across the internet had shocked the entire business world."The CEO of Knight Group is involved with his nephew’s ex-wife."Inside the building, Emily stood near the backstage corridor.Her heart was beating fast."This is crazy."Ryan leaned against the wall."You’re about to become the most famous woman in London."Emily shot him a glare."That’s not helping."Daniel checked his watch."They’re ready."Across the hallway, Alexander stood calmly in front of a mirror.He adjusted the cuff of his suit.As if he were about to attend a normal business meeting.Emily walked toward him."You’re serious about this."Alexander looked at her through the mirror."Yes."Emily crossed her arms."You can sti

The dining hall erupted into chaos.Everyone started talking at once."Marriage?""Alexander, are you serious?""This will destroy the family reputation!"Margaret Knight stood up from her chair.Her eyes burned with anger."You’ve completely lost your mind!"Alexander didn’t react.He simply stood beside Emily, his expression calm.Margaret pointed toward Emily again."You’re going to marry this woman?"Emily felt the hostility in the room growing heavier.But she refused to look away.Alexander’s voice was quiet but firm."Yes."Margaret laughed bitterly."You expect the Knight family to approve this?"Alexander replied immediately."I don’t need approval."That only made Margaret angrier."This will affect the entire company!"Another family member spoke up."Shareholders will panic."Ryan whispered behind them,"They’re acting like this is a nuclear crisis."Daniel watched silently.His eyes were on Margaret.Because he knew she wasn’t finished.Margaret leaned forward slightly."
