(Catherine) It was the day of the trial for Ran Hyun Ok today. All of Virtue Financial self proclaim inner circle, is what Catherine and the others as well as all of Virtue Financial calls this small group of people around me. To me, all of them were just a group of my hired executives, but Catherine, as always been the one that fancy the treatment of exclusivity, So she called those who have the highest level of power in Virtue Financial and also those who is around me and close to me, the Inner Circle, which I didn’t object at all, nor does it bothers me.

Mark’s face grimaced with a worried expression. “The Circle is the most powerful group in this city. They control almost everything that happens and have connections and influence in the government, underground society, police, and even the armed forces. They’ve been in operation for years, quietly controlling everything that happens in the society, from the flow of power, businesses, and even what the media reports.” “However, due to a power struggle, some of their members have had an opposing view of what the world should be like. One that not everyone in the Circle agrees with, but if they should have their way, the world we know and live in will completely change.”

She added as she bit her nails, thinking of something to sow discord between Lucian and Latton. Eight in the evening, and the Circle of Hope’s charity organization’s 35th anniversary began. It was held at an event place that could hold up to 1200 guests. They invited various socialites, politicians, and business tycoons. The event was supposed to be hosted by Catherine, but since she died, the event has now been hosted by the newly appointed head of the organization, Malcolm.

“I tried to save her.” “But you failed.” “Yes.” His voice cracked. “I've regretted it every day.” Adrian stepped closer. “Who is The Circle?” Dr. Reed looked around nervously. “A group of powerful people.” “That's not an answer.” “They control businesses, politicians, lawyers, banks. They don't operate like an ordinary organization.” Evelyn frowned. “Why would they care about my family?” Dr. Reed looked at her. “Because your family had something they wanted.” “What?”

I ignored him. “That is what you’re afraid of.” Henry didn’t answer. “You don’t need me to inherit the Circle.” I stepped closer. “You need me not to destroy it.” “It’s more complicated.” “No.” I laughed. “Actually, for the first time tonight, something isn’t.” Henry’s eyes hardened. “You don’t understand what the Circle owns.” “Then enlighten me.” “Thousands of employees.” “Companies can exist without secret bloodline control.” “Properties.” “Sell them.”

Lila’s chest ached as she tried to catch her breath. “Tell me what’s going on,” she demanded, gripping his arm. “You knew. You’ve always known.” Cade’s jaw tightened. “You wouldn’t have believed me.” “Try me!” He hesitated, eyes searching hers. “Harper isn’t working alone. She’s part of something called The Circle. It’s been running Ravenwood for years—students, professors, even alumni. They choose who wins, who fails, who breaks.” Lila’s eyes widened. “And I’m their next target?”

Like a criminal organization?” “Not really.” He wiped his mouth. “They're an underground syndicate disguised as an elite network. To outsiders, they're philanthropists, investors, security consultants, and influential businessmen.” I stared at him, waiting patiently to see where this goes. “Behind closed doors,” he continued, “they trade in secrets. Manipulate powerful people. Make problems disappear. Permanently, if necessary.”

“I don’t understand. Who’s doing this? Why now?” Her mother hesitated. “The Circle,” she whispered. “They’re watching you. Watching all of us. And they’ve been watching you... since you were born.” Evelyn’s blood ran cold. Damian stepped forward, his face hardening. “The Circle is the real threat. They’ve been behind every experiment, every corrupted facility, every mistake. They’re the ones pulling the strings, Evelyn. And right now, they have one goal: power. Absolute control.” Evelyn felt her head spin. The words didn’t make sense. The pieces were too jumbled.
