Morning sunlight poured through the large windows of the hotel suite.But the calm morning felt deceptive.Because today…Was the wedding day.Emily stood in front of the mirror in the bridal dressing room.The white dress hung perfectly around her.Soft lace.Elegant silk.It looked exactly like the kind of wedding dress every woman dreamed about.But Emily didn’t feel calm.Her heart was racing.Behind her, Ryan leaned against the wall holding a cup of coffee.“Well…”He studied the dress.“I have to admit.”“You look amazing.”Emily smiled faintly.“Thanks.”Ryan shrugged.“But honestly…”“…this is the most dangerous wedding I’ve ever attended.”Emily laughed softly.“You’re terrible at comforting people.”Ryan nodded.“That’s fair.”Across the hall…Alexander stood in a private room with Daniel.Both men were dressed in dark suits.Daniel checked his tablet carefully.“Security teams are already at the church.”Alexander nodded slightly.“Good.”Daniel looked at him.“There are fi

The church stood silent again.But the silence felt different now.The flowers were still there.The wedding decorations still beautiful.Yet the atmosphere had completely changed.Police officers filled the building.Bomb specialists carefully removed the device Daniel had disarmed.Outside…News reporters were broadcasting live updates.The story had already spread across the world.“Bomb found at Alexander Knight’s wedding.”Emily sat quietly on one of the church benches.The wedding dress still wrapped around her like a memory from another life.Her hands rested in her lap.Still trembling slightly.Ryan sat beside her.“Well…”He sighed dramatically.“This was not the wedding I expected.”Emily gave a small tired smile.“No.”Ryan looked toward the altar.“At least the church didn’t explode.”Daniel walked toward them.His expression was calm as always.“The bomb squad confirmed something.”Ryan frowned.“What?”Daniel answered quietly.“The device was never meant to detonate.”E

The boardroom meeting slowly came to an end.But no one in the room felt relieved.Because the war had only just begun.Ryan leaned back in his chair dramatically.“Well…”He sighed.“We survived bombs, kidnappings, and a fake wedding.”Daniel corrected him calmly.“Postponed wedding.”Ryan waved his hand.“Same thing.”Across the table…Margaret Knight was still studying the financial documents Alexander had revealed.Her expression remained cold.“You may have tricked Sophia Blake today.”She looked directly at him.“But she won’t fall for it twice.”Alexander didn’t argue.“I know.”Margaret narrowed her eyes.“Then why provoke her?”Alexander’s answer was simple.“Because she already declared war.”Across the city…Inside Carter Industries.Marcus Carter stepped out of the elevator and walked slowly into his office.Free again.His assistant hurried after him.“The charges were dropped.”Marcus nodded calmly.“I expected that.”The assistant hesitated.“What about Alexander Knight

The Knight Group headquarters felt unusually quiet.Most of the employees had already gone home.But inside Alexander’s private office…The lights were still on.Emily stood near the large window.The message on her phone still glowing on the screen.“You are the reason Alexander will lose everything.”Her heart felt heavy.Because deep down…Part of her feared it might be true.She whispered quietly to herself.“Who sent this?”The office door opened.Alexander walked in with Daniel and Ryan behind him.Ryan tossed his phone onto the table dramatically.“Well.”“Your bank just got stolen.”Emily looked up.“North Atlantic Bank?”Daniel nodded.“Yes.”Emily frowned.“What does that mean?”Ryan answered before anyone else.“It means Sophia Blake now controls the money.”Daniel added calmly.“Loans.”“Corporate financing.”“Investment capital.”Emily’s stomach tightened.“That sounds bad.”Ryan laughed nervously.“Bad is one word for it.”Alexander walked toward his desk slowly.His exp

The boardroom slowly emptied.Executives left in silence.Some angry.Some shocked.Others simply confused.Because one thing was clear.Alexander Knight had just survived a corporate coup.Ryan stretched his arms dramatically as the last board member walked out.“Well…”“That was fun.”Daniel closed the folder containing the proxy agreements.“You planned that carefully.”Alexander nodded slightly.“Yes.”Emily walked closer to him.“You knew they would try to remove you.”Alexander looked toward the empty chairs around the table.“Yes.”Ryan shook his head.“I swear…”“…this company is more dangerous than a war zone.”Across the city…Inside Blake Industries headquarters.Sophia Blake stood in front of the massive glass window in her office.Her assistant entered quickly.“The board vote failed.”Sophia didn’t react immediately.She simply stared at the skyline.After a moment she smiled slightly.“Alexander Knight.”The assistant hesitated.“You don’t look surprised.”Sophia shook
