ARIA’S POVIt’s no coincidence that Charlotte has gone ‘missing’ from work for a week, and upon her return, rumors about my lineage have surged. The timing is too perfect, too calculated. I keep thinking about my past rivals and enemies, yet all of them are either jailed or dead. How did our family secret get out just after my announcement as the heir of Wilson Paragon and right after my first big achievement?

ARIA’S POVMario calls me to inform me about Charlotte. The details are staggering. What a despicable woman—not only at work but also in her personal life, she has engaged in abominable activities.

Go ahead and do what you should to restore order.”“Thanks for trusting me, Dad.”“You always have my support my child.”A hug from my Dad brings solace to my heart and I feel like I am ready to deal with issue.

The tension in the air is palpable as I step inside, ready to face the brewing storm. Charlotte is impeccably dressed, exuding confidence as she anticipates being announced as the next CEO. Her smug expression makes me want to laugh, but I hold myself in check.My Dad enters the room, his presence a steadying force. We both notice the sour attitudes of everyone present.

The shock is visible on their faces. I follow this by stating that I will start by stepping down as CEO.“So, let it start from me.”I clearly state that right now, our priority should be to save the jobs of our junior staff and ensure they are not affected until the situation improves.“No! That’s impossible! This is wrong.”Charlotte's reaction is immediate and furious. She starts protesting, insisting that a company cannot function without a CEO. Her anger flares, and she tries to undermine my proposal, her voice rising with each word.I counter her by explaining that a CEO’s role is to secure business opportunities and drive growth.
