After leaving Brianna’s residence, Leander made his way to a nearby local restaurant. Fatigued from the day's events, he sank into a seat, trying to rest before confronting Rex's looming threat. He couldn't handle another attack right now.

Sitting among passing customers, Leander hurriedly grabbed his phone and messaged Lindsey to ask where she was. There was no response; she was offline.

Deciding it was late and his mother awaited him, Leander swiftly opened his contact app and dialed Max Masterson's number.

The line clicked, and Leander was taken aback by the unfamiliar, feminine voice on the other end.

"Hello, am I speaking with Max?" he inquired swiftly.

The voice responded, "Sorry, he is not with his phone. What do you want from him?"

Frustrated, Leander asserted, "Uh, I just need to speak with him. Tell him I'm Master Leander, okay?"

“Okay, hold on please,” the feminine voice boomed, soft yet authoritative.

“Max, you have a caller on the line. The person needs your attention. He

    Rex's parents have finally recognized that their efforts to compel Leander and the institution to provide their son's certificate failed. They decided to sit down and have a quiet discussion with Leander. They weren't the only ones present; one of Camila's family also supported the decision. However, Leander agreed to address the issue due to their pleadings, clarifying that they were not responsible for the delay in the certificates, but rather the institution. But no one believed him. The tension was palpable in their home as Mr. and Mrs. Kensington sat across from Leander. A stern-looking man in his sixties, who happened to be Camila’s uncle, had arrived to serve as an arbitrator. Leander leaned back, with folded arms and a calm yet determined look on his face. Mr. Kensington cleared his throat, breaking the silence. “Master Leander, I guess we need to resolve this issue as early as possible.” Leander sighed softly, with a sense of worry visible.

She admired the car’s attractiveness but was still eager to see who had bought it.“Wow, this car is crazy!” Camila murmured, her lips parting in awe.Inside the car, Leander connected his gaze back to Camila through the tinted windows and shook his head in disgust, even though she couldn't see him.Turning to Lindsey with a soft smile, Leander said, “Lindsey, are you ready now?

"I'm not a fan of Leander," she gritted out, "but you have to know that fighting him won't solve anything.” Camila fired back at her. "I can't bow down to him because he bought Ethereum University in the first place, despite Brianna's attempts to stop him. What was his intention?” "You and I know that I don't have answers to that." Marcella exclaimed calmly, her voice just above a whisper. Camila gulped hard and gazed at Marcella, feeling completely deceived by her words. "Ergh, don't let us pretend. Let's face reality," Camila urged, her expression unyielding as she took a sip from her glass. "He acquired the university to control our qualifications under the guise of the institution management. What does that imply? Tell me." Marcella's taunts sliced through the air, her calm voice laced with confidence as she pressed on, "Well, I need you to see that dragging this out only

    As the evening wound down at the Evans estate, Leander found himself reflecting on how smoothly the dinner had gone. The partnership with the Evans family held tremendous potential, and for the first time in years, the idea of forging alliances felt more natural than adversarial. He was about to leave when Walter extended a hand and stopped him.“Leander, a word before you go?” Walter asked, gesturing toward his study.Curious but composed, Leander nodded. “Of course.”The two entered the dimly lit study, where walls were lined with shelves of leather-bound books. A vintage globe stood by the window, and the scent of aged wood filled the room. Walter closed the door behind them and motioned for Leander to sit in one of the plush chairs by the fireplace.“What’s on your mind?” Leander asked, his tone measured.Walter sat across from him, a serious expression settling over his face. “I need to ask for your discretion, Leander.

    The grand hall of the Thornton estate was resplendent with luxury. Crystal chandeliers sparkled overhead, casting a golden glow on the marble floors, while the walls were adorned with intricate tapestries depicting the family’s storied lineage. It was their annual feast—a celebration of the Thornton legacy, a night to flaunt wealth, power, and influence to the elite of society.Leander stood at the entrance, his sharp suit tailored to perfection. His expression was calm, almost unreadable, but his eyes held a glint of quiet determination. He had been invited, not out of goodwill but as a courtesy and a calculated move by the Thornton family to show they had nothing to fear from him. After all, Leander's recent rise in influence had made him a threat, even to the likes of the Thorntons.As he stepped into the hall, the chatter quieted for a moment. All eyes turned to him. He was an outsider in this circle of established power, yet his presence demanded respect."Leander," Albert Thornt

    Leander stood by the floor-to-ceiling windows, looking out at the skyline. The city below was alive with movement, lights flickering in every direction, but up here, in the quiet of his penthouse, it felt like a different world. He took a slow sip of whiskey, feeling the warmth spread through him. The quiet of the evening was a rare gift, one he appreciated more than he let on.The sound of the door opening behind him brought his attention back to the present. Wyatt walked in, his usual easygoing demeanor at odds with the tension in his posture."What's got you in such a rush?" Leander asked, his voice low but carrying a note of curiosity.Wyatt closed the door softly behind him, walking across the room to join Leander by the windows. "Just came from a meeting with the board. It's about the next quarter." He paused, eyeing the glass in Leander's hand. "You're drinking already?"Leander smirked, taking another sip. "Some days, it feels necessary."Wyatt shook his head but didn't commen

They discussed upcoming projects, potential collaborations, and their shared vision for the future. “You know,” Wyatt said, swirling the last of his whiskey, “we should do this more often. Just sit back and talk, no agendas or deadlines looming over us.” “I’d like that,” Leander said, a rare note of vulnerability in his voice. “It’s easy to lose sight of what really matters when you’re caught up in the grind.” Wyatt nodded, raising his glass. “To friendship, then. The one thing that’s worth more than all the deals in the world.” Leander clinked his glass against Wyatt’s, the sound ringing out like a promise.The conversation deepened as the night drew on, the city lights sparkling in the background.

    The late afternoon sun cast a golden glow over the expansive terrace of Wyatt’s penthouse. The panoramic view of the city was breathtaking, with skyscrapers reflecting the sun’s brilliance and the streets below teeming with life. Leander leaned back in one of the plush armchairs, a tumbler of whiskey resting on the table in front of him. Across from him, Wyatt lounged in his usual carefree manner, his tie loosened and the top button of his shirt undone.“So,” Wyatt began, swirling the amber liquid in his glass, “how’s Brianna handling your new found glory as a corporate savior?”Leander chuckled, shaking his head. “She’s proud, of course, but she keeps reminding me not to let it get to my head. Says she doesn’t want to live with an ego the size of this penthouse.”Wyatt laughed, the sound rich and genuine. “Smart woman. You’d be insufferable if you started taking yourself too seriously.”“Says the man who had a custom portrait commissioned for his office,” Leander shot back, smirking.
