As I looked around, I couldn't help but feel a mix of nerves and excitement. This was the moment I had been preparing for, and I was determined to make it a success.

Madam Katie stood beside me, her presence calming and reassuring. "Carina, you look stunning," she said with a smile. "Are you ready for this?"

I took a deep breath and nodded. "Yes, I am. Thank you for believing in me, Madam Katie."

She gave my hand a gentle squeeze. "You deserve this, Carina. You're going to do great."

As we made our way through the crowd, Madam Katie began introducing me to various guests, each one more distinguished than the last. "Everyone, I'd like you to meet Carina, the new CEO of our company," she announced, her voice filled w

    The party was winding down, and the night had been a whirlwind of emotions and triumphs. I had mingled with countless guests, shared laughs, and even had that unforgettable kiss with Martins. But as I was taking in the last moments of the evening, something caught my eye. In a corner of the room, partially hidden by the shadows, I saw my mother. She was standing there, clapping softly, her eyes filled with tears. Our eyes met for a brief second, and I quickly looked away, a flood of mixed emotions washing over me. I felt a hand on my shoulder and turned to see Madam Katie, her expression one of gentle concern. “Carina,” she said softly, “can we talk for a moment?” I nodded and followed her to a quieter corner of the room, away from the remaining guests. Madam Katie looked at me, her eyes serious but kind. “I saw you noticed your mother.” “Yes,” I replied, trying to keep my voice steady. “I did. But I don’t want to talk to her.” Madam Katie sighed. “Carina, your mother came to se

    Luke sat in his dimly lit living room, his eyes glued to the TV screen. The news was showing highlights from Carina's handing over ceremony. He watched, jaw clenched, as Carina confidently delivered her speech, then saw Martins kiss her passionately. The crowd's cheers seemed to echo in his ears, amplifying his anger and jealousy."That should be me!" he roared, standing up abruptly and hurling a vase across the room. It shattered against the wall, causing Claire to jump in her seat."Luke, calm down!" Claire demanded, her voice a mix of irritation and concern."How can I calm down?" Luke shot back, pacing furiously. "That should be me standing beside her, not Martins!"Claire folded her arms, her expression skeptical. "You were the one who said you hated Carina, remember? You wanted nothing to do with her."Luke stopped and turned to face his mother, his eyes blazing. "Can't you see, Mother? Carina is now a billionaire. She's powerful, successful. She's everything we need."Claire's

    The family gathering was in full swing, with relatives milling about, enjoying the sunny afternoon in the sprawling garden of the family estate. Martins stood by the refreshment table, chatting with a few cousins, when he noticed Luke making his way towards him. Luke had a smug look on his face, and Martins knew trouble was brewing."Well, well, if it isn't my dear uncle," Luke said, his voice dripping with sarcasm as he approached Martins. "Aren't you ashamed, Martins? Dragging a woman into this mess? And worse, trying to take her from me, your own nephew?"Martins chuckled, not the least bit intimidated. "Luke, let's get one thing straight. I've loved Carina long before you ever came into the picture. My feelings for her are genuine. You? You never appreciated her."Luke's face darkened. "I want Carina back, Martins. You need to step back."Martins' expression turned serious. "Stay away from Carina, Luke. She’s not some trophy to be won. If you come near her again, I swear, I’ll b

How could a high school dropout like me possibly pull this off?I picked up my phone and called Martins. His soothing voice was exactly what I needed right now."Hey, Carina," he answered almost immediately. "How are you feeling?""I'm a wreck, Martins," I admitted. "What if I mess this up? What if they see right through me?""Listen to me," Martins said firmly. "You are incredibly smart and capable. You’ve worked so hard on this proposal. Just breathe and trust yourself. You've got this."I took a deep breath, trying to absorb his confidence. "Thanks, Martins. I really needed to hear that.""You’re going to do great," he assured me. "And remember, I’m here cheering you on."As soon as I hung up, my phone rang again.

As she settled on a news channel, her mood darkened further when the anchor mentioned a name she had grown to despise: Carina."Today, in a major industry move, Carina Rodriguez has signed a groundbreaking deal with one of the leading entertainment companies," the anchor announced.
