It had been a year since the fall of Killian and Leo, their nefarious empire dismantled piece by piece. Justice had finally caught up with them, and Evan had ensured they were brought to trial, where they faced the consequences of their actions. Their sentences had been severe—years behind bars, where they could do no more harm.
Now, Rising Eagle was thriving under Evan’s leadership. He had transformed the company, steering it towards innovation and ethical practices, making it a beacon of hope in the industry. But the greatest transformation had been within himself. No longer the man haunted by fear and uncertainty, he was now a confident leader, driven by purpose.

It had been six years since he had seen or spoken to Leo, too preoccupied with his own troubles to reach out. Leo's concern was evident in his voice as he asked, "I heard about your accident.
