The doctor in charge greeted him with a warm smile, motioning for him to take a seat."Chairman Conrad, thank you for coming," the doctor began, his tone serious yet reassuring. "I have some good news to share with you regarding Sir Christopher's recovery."The doctor was all smiles but his heart was clouded with uneasiness at least his grandson health was getting better and he was doing very well so he awaited any news the doctor had to tell him."Firstly, I wanted to show you the latest brain scans we've taken of Sir Christopher," the doctor continued, gesturing towards the screen on his desk.

The KXX hotel bar exuded an air of opulence, with its dimly lit ambiance and plush furnishings.

"Fair enough," she conceded, swirling her drink lazily in its glass. "So, what good news have you brought for me?"But before Cosmos could respond, curios
As Chairman Conrad stood in the hospital parking lot, his mind consumed by suspicions regarding Cosmos's unexpected visit to the KXX hotel, his thoughts churned with uncertainty and apprehension.

Sapphira paced back and forth in her dimly lit room, the soft glow of the city outside casting shadows across the walls. The air was heavy with the scent of smoke as she took a long drag from her cigarette, the ember burning brightly before she flicked it into the ashtray with frustration. Another cigarette found its way between her fingers, and she lit it with a practiced hand, inhaling deeply as she sank onto the edge of her bed.Her mind was a whirlwind of thoughts, each one more tumultuous than the last. Cosmos's revelation had rocked her to the core. If Larry Conrad truly was the long-lost son of Chairman Conrad, then he held the key to her revenge.

He would be angry, bitter even, after years of abandonment by his father. She needed to act fast before the chairman got to him first. With a determined expression, Sapphira pulled out her phone and
