The article read. Spotted, CEO Quinn and his ex-girlfriend. Another read. Lost lovers united. The article read one after the other. I scrolled, all the same articles. More feeds were coming in. All from different bloggers.

"Lately, I don't know which brain dead magazine company has decided to spew nonsense. Here, look at this." She had bought a magazine from a news stand on her way to work. On the magazine's cover was a picture of Rex devouring a plate of pudding with ferocity. It seemed to have been taken at the wedding banquet. The title of the magazine read, 'The Dream to Marry Into A Rich Family Gone. Alleged Ex Girlfriend of the Young Master Stephenson Obsessed With a Who We All Know...'. Hilda was rendered speechless. Hilda flipped open the magazine and found the article that discredited her.

~ Lena POV ~ I found it before Adrian could tell me about it. Seven forty-two in the morning, still in my pyjamas, first coffee not yet finished, the specific defenceless quality of an early Wednesday before the day had decided what it was going to be. I’d been scrolling through my industry news feed, the professional habit of checking what had moved overnight, and the piece appeared between a merger announcement and a quarterly report like it belonged there. It didn’t belong there. I read it once quickly, the way you read something when you’re hoping the speed will change what it says. It didn’t change. I set down my coffee and read it again slowly, the way I read things when I needed to un

Results started loading. I clicked on the first article and started reading. I had three weeks until the new deadline. Time to figure out what all the hype was about.

She wants each of us to achieve our goals, and in turn, we want the same for her. “It's going. I want to have it finished so I can post it tonight. Then honeymoon.” he grinned, his focus back on the tablet. I’ve, of course, read every page they publish. Just like Riko, I pay my coins to read my brothers’ work. I know how talented they are, and even if I don’t believe everything from Yūri’s stories, I give her credit that she's lived a fascinating life or is at least one hell of a storyteller.

I had been awake since five-thirty and had spent the forty-four minutes before the link arrived doing what I had been doing every morning for six weeks, taking stock, cataloguing what the day required and what it was likely to produce and where the gaps in my preparation were. I opened the link. The headline was not what I had expected. I had anticipated something measured, the financial journalism register that communicated significance through understatement. What Rachel Voss had written instead was sharper and more human than that, the headline carrying in twelve words the full weight of what the story was about rather than gesturing toward it from a professional distance. She Had Been Mi

RICHARD The story broke two days after Karen filed, and I read it alone in my office at eight in the morning with my cup of coffee sitting untouched beside me, slowly going cold while the city outside my windows carried on like nothing monumental had just happened. At first, I thought it was the article Lena had warned me about. But this was not that story. This was something else entirely. This was clean, precise and merciless.

My phone lights up again. Victor Hale calling. Marcus’s father. I decline. Too early for desperation. Instead, I forward the article to Communications with one instruction: No response. Silence legitimizes chaos. By the time I enter the kitchen, financial channels are already dissecting the story. Lydia stands at the counter reading headlines on her tablet.

He got up and went to the kitchen and made the coffee.
