Derek, Bianca, and Derek's wife sat in a cozy café near the foundation's headquarters, sipping their coffees and reflecting on the whirlwind of events that had transpired since the summit.Derek leaned forward, a twinkle in his eyes. "Can you believe the response we received? The media coverage has been tremendous, and the number of individuals reaching out to join our cause has skyrocketed."Bianca nodded, a smile stretching across her face. "It's truly remarkable. The summit opened doors we never thought possible.

As the foundation expanded its reach and impact, Derek realized the need to strengthen their global network of partners and collaborators. He called for a meeting with his team to discuss the establishment of strategic alliances with organizations and individuals who shared their vision.During the meeting, a team member suggested, "We should consider forming partnerships with universities and research institutions. By collaborating with academic experts, we can leverage their knowledge and expertise to drive evidence-based approaches to social change."Derek agreed wholeheartedly. "Academic partnerships will provide us with valuable insights, research, and access to cutting-edge methodologies. Let's identify key institutions and establish formal collaborations to foster innovation and strengthen our programs."A new face in the meeting, Rebecca, an experienced social entrepreneur, raised her hand. "I've been working on a project that focuses on sustainable agriculture and food securi

As the joint initiative flourished and gained recognition, Derek found himself juggling various responsibilities. He divided his time between overseeing the foundation's expanding programs and managing his company's operations with the help of his grandfather, Dawson, and the Acting CEO.Meanwhile, Bianca, who had been living in Dubai with Derek, continued to assert her presence and vie for his attention. Her relentless pursuit of Derek created an increasingly tense atmosphere between her and Jaria, who had returned to Sweden to take control of her family's assets.In Sweden, Jaria navigated the complexities of managing her family's wealth and business empire. Despite the demands of her new responsibilities, she couldn't shake off her lingering feelings for Derek. The distance only fueled her longing for him, and she found herself torn between her duty to her family and her love for him.Back in Dubai, Derek remained focused on his philanthropic endeavors, constantly seeking new ways

He visits a luxury bar in the night, where he has planned a meeting with his close friends and some of his trusted associates on this important decision of his life. Each of them gives him their ideas, at the end of it, he decides to go for Bianca, but there is this challenge, Bianca is an international lawyer and women's rights activist, so now he will have to battle with a wife who wouldn't be steady by his side.As he sat in the dimly lit bar, sipping on his whiskey, he couldn't help but feel a mixture of excitement and apprehension. The decision he was about to make would not only impact his personal life but also potentially challenge his own beliefs and values. He glanced around the room, waiting for his friends and trusted associates to arrive.One by one, they entered the bar, taking their seats around the table. The air was thick with anticipation as they began discussing the important decision at hand. The conversation flowed freely, with each person offering their unique pe

Tahlia took a deep breath and looked Derek in the eye. "I didn't plan for this, Derek," she said, her voice trembling slightly. "But I'm pregnant."Derek's surprise quickly turned into a mix of emotions—confusion, guilt, and a glimmer of hope. "Pregnant? Are you sure?"Tahlia nodded, her eyes glistening with tears. "I went to the doctor yesterday. It's still early, but it's definite. I understand if you need time to process this."Derek's mind raced, memories of their passionate encounter resurfacing. He felt a tinge of regret for not remembering that night clearly, but he knew he couldn't change the past. Instead, he focused on the present. "Tahlia, I'm sorry for what happened. I was drunk and made a terrible mistake. But we can't undo it now."Tahlia's voice wavered, a mix of anger and sadness evident. "That's not the only reason I'm here, Derek. I know you don't remember that night, but I have something to show you."She reached into her bag and pulled out a smartphone. With trembl
