Amber violently shook off my hand as if she had touched something filthy. "I've already invested the money in Darwin's gym. If I were you, I'd just tell the hospital to stop resuscitation. That way you won't end up losing both your mother and the money."It felt like a bolt of lightning struck me, leaving me completely numb and cold.Standing next to her, Darwin crossed his arms and chimed in sarcastically, "Amber, don't be so heartless. I think we should give him a little cash to get him out of here before he ruins the vibe."Amber's eyes lit up at once. She clearly found this idea much more entertaining.She slowly drew a thick stack of new bills from her purse and fanned them out between her fingers. It was easily five thousand dollars."Want the cash? Sure. But I want to see a puppy wag its tail. Get down right now and wag your tail 100 times. Do that, and the money is yours."I stared at her with bloodshot eyes.But this was Mom's life support.Numbly, I bent over, placed

For the past three years, I had repeatedly pushed opportunities like this away for a woman who never loved me.I had been an absolute fool.This time, I didn't hesitate for a single second. "I accept your offer."A smile finally broke across Clara's face, filled with the excitement of someone who had just unearthed a priceless treasure."You won't regret today's decision. Asteria's elite legal and operations teams will be integrated into your newly registered company, Hectoris Media, immediately."Furthermore, Asteria will extend a 50-million-dollar interest-free loan to your company as startup capital."Every single term she offered was enough to send shockwaves through the entire industry.She was wagering all her resources on my future.Not long after Clara left, the ward door was violently pushed open.Amber burst into the room clutching a thermal flask. Her eyes were bloodshot, and she was wearing an expression of panic I had never seen on her face before."Honey! Are yo

My phone buzzed. It was a real-time monitor briefing from my assistant, Ray Morin.Amber had woken up in the hospital. The moment she checked her phone, her expression had shifted from confusion to deathly pale.Online, her name was trending alongside tags like "fake charity", "homewrecker," and "fraudulent socialite".A relentless torrent of abuse was flooding her DMs.Her social death had arrived faster and harder than I ever anticipated.Attached to the briefing was a photograph. Amber had rolled off her hospital bed in sheer panic, looking like a creature without a spine.Her phone screen showed termination notices from major brand partners.Astronomical damages were being claimed, and her corporate accounts had been frozen.The money and fame she cherished above all else were being stripped away piece by piece.I shut off my phone.Clara handed me a glass of warm water. "What will she do next?"I looked out the window at the massive Asteria Entertainment logo reflected

"Hector! I'm sorry! I'll do anything! I'll be your slave!" Amber wept and wailed from behind the wall of men, her voice agonizingly shrill.I stopped walking but didn't bother to look back."You're not looking for my forgiveness. You're just trying to escape your debts and your impending prison sentence."My voice was icy, devoid of any warmth. "Amber, you disgust me. You don't deserve forgiveness."The moment the words left my mouth, several police officers cut through the crowd and stepped in front of her."Ms. Shepherd, you're under arrest for embezzlement and illegal transfer of assets. Please come with us."On the other side of the lobby, Darwin, who was still groaning on the floor, was hauled away by another team.His charge was extortion.The two who were once so glamorous were now reduced to a pathetic mess. They were escorted into police cruisers in front of dozens of flashing cameras.The farce was finally over.Clara and I walked out of the crowd side by side, comp
