Rowland stepped out of the taxi as it approached Fence Emerald Company, his mind racing with memories of the old man's revelations.

He had promised to help, but there was still much he did not know. The old man remained in the taxi, reluctant to draw attention to himself.

"I will handle this for the time being," Rowland said, looking back at him. "The taxi driver will transport you back from here."

The old man nodded reluctantly and clutched his photograph tightly. Rowland adjusted his tie before entering the company's sleek glass doors. The air was filled with activity, with employees rushing back and forth with files and tablets in hand.

Rowland came to a halt as he approached his office, recognizing Mr. Mark, standing near the main lobby.

Mr Mark was shaking hands with Amaya Clinton. The sight was unusual enough to make him pause.

"Thank you, Mrs. Clinton," Mr. Mark replied warmly, his tone full of gratitude. "Your design is precisely what we needed to persuade the board

Her confidence radiated as she approached the Vice President's office.She had always considered Clinton to be not only her husband, but also her strongest ally in the company, and she felt vindicated today.She could still remember Mr. Mark's gleeful compliments, and she felt even more triumphant after witnessing Rowland's subdued response.She knocked lightly and went inside without waiting for a response. Clinton looked up from his desk, his sharp features softening into a happy smile."Amaya," he replied, leaning back in his chair. "Just on time. I assume everything went according to plan?"Amaya returned the smile, setting her handbag on one of the chairs before taking a seat. "It was better than I expected. Mr. Mark was completely impressed. He’s reinstating the deal and even praised the design to Rowland’s face.”Clinton chuckled and shook his head. "I promised

    The next morning at Jones Company, the atmosphere was alive with activity as employees shuffled around, getting ready for another busy day. However, behind the pristine façade of the company's operations, Mr. and Mrs. Jones were deep in conversation, their voices hushed but charged with malice. They sat across from each other in Mr. Jones' large office, with the blinds drawn to ensure privacy. Mrs. Jones leaned forward, tapping the table with her neatly manicured nails. "It is no surprise that Mia has been assisting Rowland behind our backs. That girl has created her own obstacle, and you know how I feel about obstacles." Mr. Jones smirked, his expression darkened. "She has no idea what is going to happen. You are right, though. If we are going to deal with Rowland properly, we need to first neutralize Mia.” Mrs. Jones gave a nod, her eyes narrowing. "Exactly.

    That same day, the atmosphere at the Jones Company was tense. Rowland sat at his desk, looking composed but determined.He had just signed off on a letter that he knew would cause a stir throughout the company—a termination letter for Mia.He put the letter in a folder and a few seconds later Beauty, the secretary, came into the room. She noted his unusual stillness and furrowed brow as he slid the document across the desk toward her."Sir, Is there anything urgent?" Beauty inquired cautiously."Yes," Rowland responded, his tone even yet firm. "This is Mia's termination notice. I would like you to personally deliver it to Mr. and Mrs. Jones. I want them to sign it too."Beauty stood stunned, her eyes widening in disbelief. "Sir... Mia? Are you certain?”Rowland responded with a nod. "It has been authorized. Please ensure that it gets to them as soon as possible."Beauty paused, searching his face for an explanation, but his expression was unreadable. Knowing better than to inquire fur

    When Rowland finished speaking, the grand hall fell into a thick silence. His charge had struck like a clap of thunder, upending the foundation of what had appeared to be a successful and seamless presentation.However, instead of immediate acceptance, the reaction was far from what he had expected.The audience started whispering."He is just making this up," someone whispered."He can not take the fact that Amaya got the deal instead of him," another voice scoffed."I have heard he is been having personal problems recently. Perhaps this is just another desperate attempt to stay relevant," muttered a man in a navy blue suit to his colleague.With skeptical looks on their faces, a few heads nodded in agreement. They saw Rowland's claim as nothing more than a bitter outburst from someone who had lost the deal at first in the company.Clinton jumped out of his chair at that precise moment, his face flushed with rage. He raised a trembling finger to Rowland."Enough with this nonsense!"

The investors' stares pressed down on her, and she could sense their doubt growing by the second.Her mind raced, desperately looking for a way out of this situation, but nothing came up. The fact that Rowland would never be able to prove his claim had given her such confidence.And yet, here he was, standing firm on undeniable evidence.Clinton clenched his fists while he remained seated next to her. He stared at the screen that displayed Rowland's creation logs and design drafts, his jaw clenched.He wanted to believe his wife, but something inside him said otherwise.Rowland had provided evidence that was too specific and detailed to be fake. Even so, he could not allow Amaya to collapse in this manner—not in front of these investors."This is ridiculous!" Clinton jerked to his feet. His anger was barely contained as he pointed at Rowland.

He repeated himself in a steady voice that was rough with age."Amaya is my biological daughter. The daughter I lost years ago."There was a new round of whispering among the board members and investors. As others shook their heads in shock, others leaned forward, curious for more information.Mr. Mark narrowed his eyes and spoke suspiciously to the old man."The last time you interrupted a meeting like this, you claimed that Mr. Rowland was your son," he said slowly.

All eyes shifted between Amaya and Rowland, attempting to process the possibility.Rowland's face was bright, but his expression was unclear. Amaya, on the other hand, appeared totally lost.
