Novel & Cerita A Hundred Million Mistake

he whispered quietly, the admission tasting like ash in his mouth. “Foolish?” Elysia laughed, a sharp, incredulous sound cutting through the winter air. She was genuinely amused by the sheer audacity and self-righteousness dripping from his pathetic confession. “Foolishness is when you don't know something and you make a genuine mistake once,” Elysia's hand slowly fell away from her rounded bump back to her side. “Maybe even twice. Or on rare occasions, a third time.” “But yours... yours ran round the clock, without a single break, for five miserable years.”

And he could still remain CEO of Aurelian Maritime? That meant Aurelian Capital behind him was not simple. Zofia sighed. “Nola, no matter what, we are still family. Meryl is injured. As her aunt, I cannot simply do nothing. Take this. It is for your sister.” Rebecca helped pass it over, deliberately failing to hold it properly so that two hundred dollar bills fell to the floor. “Oh dear, they fell. Pick them up yourself, all right?” Two hundred dollars. They really knew how to help.

NATHAN (March 3 - Miami) Securing an appointment with Potiphar Alvarez proved to be a daunting task. After weeks of persistent calls and rescheduling, my secretary, Lena Lee, finally managed to land a meeting with the esteemed political and business figure. My driver's voice breaks the silence, "We're here, Sir," as he pulls the car to a halt in front of the magnificent building that houses Potiphar Alvarez's company. The building's grandeur is awe-inspiring, exuding opulence and architectural excellence. The sleek, modern design seems to shimmer in the sunlight, with every detail meticulously crafted to reflect the company's success.

"Exactly — why is Vanessa the one fixing this when the person who caused it is just standing there?" "That's two hundred thousand dollars. Vanessa's honestly too good." Mr. Brown sighed. "This isn't about the money. If it were just about money I wouldn't have come down here myself. What I'm upset about is that an error this large happened at all. It's a trust issue. Today it's a two-hundred-thousand-dollar gap — what about next time?" The stares coming at me from every direction were vicious. "Whoever made this mistake shouldn't just pay — they should be fired."

Real leadership was admitting mistakes and doing better. The notes from week two had made me cry. Dr. Reeves had asked Kai to describe the moment he rejected me. To walk through every thought. Every feeling. Every rationalization. He'd been brutally honest about his cowardice. About choosing image over integrity. About being so terrified of looking weak that he'd destroyed the most important relationship in his life.

I felt him tremble once, and then it passed. When he finally pulled back, his eyes were red but steady. "That's why my sample was in the clinic's system," he said quietly. "We'd stored extra, in case we tried again. And then there was a mistake." My heart tightened. "Mislabeled," I said slowly. "That's all it was." "A vial in the wrong place. A tag that didn't match." His mouth twisted. "Three people signed off on it and nobody caught it. By the time the clinic ran their audit, you'd already had the transfer."

I have been the perfect wife to Marcus Blackwood, the powerful CEO of a billion-dollar empire, for five years. What I never knew was that the woman living under my roof as his "cousin" was his secret lover — and together, they had been quietly accelerating the brain cancer already killing me. But I woke up this time with something I never had before. Memories. Of my last life.. Now I’ve got three weeks left to live. So what does a dying woman with nothing left to lose do with a billionaire's darkest secrets? She burns it all down..

It's the first day back after the holiday break, and everyone at the company is trying to start the year strong. Everyone except me. I'm openly staring out the window, and no one says a word. That's because I'm the only person who made our boss, Michael Cannon, an extra 200 million dollars last year. He told me himself, "Do whatever you want." The new operations director has no idea. He smashes my computer in front of everyone and orders me to pay a 20,000-dollar fine to make an example of me. Later, I make one phone call, pack up my things, and leave. Michael shows up at my house in person, saying he's there to take me back to work. Why? Because the number I called yesterday belongs

-00- “What a waste! What have you been doing all this time huh?" Zillion angry at the marketing staff who today made a fatal mistake and nearly cost the company a loss. Everyone in the room seemed to be holding their breath in fear when their famous perfectionist boss caught them making an utterly fatal mistake. If Zillion wasn't quick to catch on when he saw the awkwardness of the billboard on Chicago's main street, then maybe his company might actually be taking a big hit.

I scoff after he said that. "I don't think I'm going to make another mistake after you make me realize how important for me to choose my partner wisely. I think the biggest mistake I've ever made is with you and give all my heart for you. I was so stupid back there." I said it all out. I am really mad at him and this scars really deep in my heart and I don't think it will recover just like that.
