She couldn’t ignore it anymore—there was a life growing inside her, and it terrified her.She ran a hand through her hair and exhaled slowly. The plan had felt airtight weeks ago, like a surefire way to ensure her and her babies future and security. But now? Now, the weight of it all felt unbearable. And Franklin... He had no clue what was coming.Her mother, Mrs. Bernard, entered the room, as she often did, without knocking. “How are you doing today?” she asked, though it sounded more like an inspection than a genuine question. She studied Daisy with an analytical eye, her lips tightening at the sight of her daughter’s pale face and slouched postur

Casey Ford arrived at Richmond’s place in the early evening, carrying a couple of bags with her. The house felt quiet, almost too quiet, except for the occasional sounds coming from the television inside.Richmond Wright had been under house arrest for a while now since after she got him released, and she had made it a habit to visit him whenever she could, always bringing something to make the time pass by more easily. Casey knocked lightly on the door, and after a few moments, Richmond opened it. He gave her a tired smile, clearly glad to see her."Hey, you," she said softly, holding up the bags. "I brought some stuff. Thought it might cheer you up."Richmond's smile widened a little as he stepped aside to let her in. "You didn’t have to, but I’m happy you did."Once inside, Casey placed the bags on the small table in the living room. There were flowers, some homemade food, and a few small gifts—things she thought would brighten his mood, even just a bit."So," Casey began as she p

The meeting room was spacious and modern, with sleek furniture and large windows that allowed plenty of sunlight to flood in. Seated around the table were the new heads of Miles Empire—Mr. Thayer, Mr. Lee, Mr. Patel, and Mr. Reynolds—each reviewing documents and reports in front of them. The air in the room was heavy with an unspoken sense of purpose, as they prepared to discuss the future of the company they had taken over. They had worked hard to clean up the mess left behind by the previous leadership, and now was the time to assess their progress.Mr. Thayer, the eldest of the group, sat at the head of the table. He placed his papers down and adjusted his glasses, his eyes sweeping over his colleagues. “It’s been a long road,” he started, his voice calm but firm. “But we’re making strides. The damage from previous decisions hasn’t been easy to overcome, but I believe we’re turning a corner.”Mr. Lee nodded silently, taking in Thayer’s words. He leaned back in his chair, arms crosse

"We can't get back at the top without external support," Mr. Reynolds said, his eyes scanning the grim numbers on the quarterly report. ""We're working on rebuilding the trust," Mr. Patel replied sharply. "The last thing we need is some outsider telling us how to run our own company."Suddenly, the heavy wooden doors of the boardroom creaked open. The executives turned to see Ivan striding in, uninvited, with two of his associates trailing behind him. They had gotten in all with the help of the Insider!"Excuse me, gentlemen," Ivan said, his calm voice cutting through the room, ignoring the looks of shock and confusion from the executives. "I believe I have a proposition that could save your beloved company from sinking."Mr. Patel's face darkened with immediate displeasure. "Who are you and who invited you to this meeting?" he barked."This is a private session." Mr Lee said.Ivan smiled, wickedly. "Consider me a solution to your problems. I'm here on behalf of Bill Ford, and we’re

In his suite, Franklin’s morning started with a routine buzz of his phone. Glancing at the screen, he noticed a message: someone was waiting to see him. He squinted, scanning the message twice, as though he could squeeze out a clue about who might be seeking him. Who would be showing up, especially at this early hour? No one had reached out or scheduled anything; this was unusual.He found himself feeling a bit of curiosity mix with the morning calm.
