Following the death of her beloved grandfather, Desire is thrust into the demanding role of CEO, leaving behind her promising career as a surgeon. However, Chase, driven by greed and ambition, relentlessly sabotages her efforts to uphold her grandfather's legacy, resorting to deceit and even attempted murder to eliminate her from the equation.

She brushed it off, attributing it to the stress of the day. Climbing into her vehicle she started the engine and pulled out of the parking lot, unaware of the danger that awaits her.While driving she thought about how her uncle Chase would make his revenge on her. She knows him so much that she believes that he won’t give up without a fight. His undying ambitions turned him into an unstoppable storm that would destroy her peaceful life. With her right hand she grabbed her phone ,while the other one is still on the steering wheel. She dialed her friend, Patricia. It has been a long time since they had a conversation. After a few rings Patricia answered with a croaky voice. “Hey, what’s wrong with you? Are you okay?” she asked in a worried tone while her eyes were fixed on the road. “Yeah, just some common cold.” Pa

The sun dipped below the horizon, casting long shadows across the city as Chase sat in a dimly lit bar, nursing a drink that had long since lost it’s chill. The weight of his recent defeat hung heavily on his shoulders, and the bitterness of betrayal coursed through his veins. Desire had taken everything from him—his position, his power, and his reputation. He could not let her win. Not like this.The vibrant chatter and laughter around him felt distant, muffled by the weight of his disappointment. The sting of failure was sharp, and he sought solace in the bottom of his glass, taking another long sip.As he brooded, Louie entered the bar, his eyes scanning the room until they landed on Chase. He approached cautiously, knowing the volatile mix of emotions that often brewed within his friend. “Chase,” he began, his voice steady but laced with concern. “Maybe it’s time to rethink your ambitions. This path—”Before Louie could finish, Chase’s frustration boiled over. In a sudden, explos

The conference room was a stark contrast to the vibrant autumn day outside. Sunlight filtered through the tall windows, casting long shadows across the polished mahogany table. The air was thick with tension as the investors settled into their seats, their expressions a mix of curiosity and apprehension. At the head of the table sat Desire, the granddaughter of the late founder and chairman of Almonte Empire , whom everyone admires for his excellent leadership leading to countless success of the company. Today, she would unveil the truth that had been lurking in the shadows of the company for far too long. Desire glanced at the clock on the wall, it's hands ticking steadily towards the hour. She took a deep breath, her heart racing with anticipation. This is not just another board meeting; it's a reckoning. Across from her, Chase, the current vice president for operations, sat with an air of confidence that bordered on arrogance. He had built a reputation as a savvy businessman, but D

The air in the boardroom was thick with tension, a palpable mix of ambition and uncertainty. Desire sat at the head of the long, polished table, her fingers drumming lightly against the surface, a rhythmic reminder of her resolve. The room was filled with half of the board members of Almonte Empire, a group of seasoned executives who had weathered storms and navigated corporate treachery for decades. But today, they were not just there to discuss quarterly profits; they were there to discuss a war. “Thank you all for coming on such short notice,” she began, her voice steady and commanding. “I know the recent changes have left many of you unsettled. My grandfather , the chairman had left us unexpectedly. And knowing my uncle he would do everything to take over. Chase is ambitious, but he lacks the vision to lead this company into the future. I believe together, we can change that.” A murmur of agreement rippled through the room, but Desire could see the hesitation in their eyes. They

Desire’s heart raced as she sprinted through the hospital’s sliding glass doors, the sterile scent of antiseptic and the muted sounds of beeping machines enveloping her like a shroud. Panic clawed at her throat, each step echoing the urgency of her thoughts. She had received the call just moments ago, a frantic voice on the other end telling her to hurry. Her grandfather, the patriarch of the Almonte family, was in critical condition. “Where is he?” she gasped, her breath coming in sharp bursts as she approached the reception desk. The nurse behind the counter looked up, her expression a mix of sympathy and professionalism. “Please, I need to see my grandfather, Mr. Almonte,” Desire pleaded, her voice trembling. The nurse’s eyes softened, but there was a gravity in her demeanor. “I’m sorry, but you need to follow me. He’s… he’s in the morgue.” Desire’s heart sank, the words hitting her like a physical blow. “No, no, that can’t be right. I just spoke to him last night. He was fine

The moon hung low in the sky, casting a silvery glow over the abandoned warehouse that served as Chase’s hideout. The air was thick with tension, a palpable energy that mirrored the storm brewing inside him. He had spent the last few days in a haze of anger and frustration, replaying the events that had led to his niece Desire’s near demise. The men he had trusted to carry out the job had failed him, and now they would pay the price. Chase pushed open the creaking door, the sound echoing through the empty space. Shadows danced along the walls, and the faint smell of rust and decay filled his nostrils. He could hear their voices before he saw them—loud, boisterous, and utterly oblivious to the storm that was about to descend upon them. “Can you believe we almost had her?” one of the men laughed, slapping another on the back. “If it weren’t for that damn man who acted like a hero, we’d be swimming in cash right now!” Chase’s fists clenched at his sides, his knuckles turning white. He

Desire blinked against the harsh fluorescent lights, her vision slowly clearing as she took in her surroundings. The sterile scent of antiseptic filled the air, and the rhythmic beeping of machines created a strange symphony that both comforted and unnerved her. She was in a hospital bed, the crisp white sheets pulled up to her chin. Panic surged through her as she tried to sit up, but a wave of dizziness washed over her, forcing her back down. “Easy there, sweetheart,” a familiar voice soothed, and she turned her head to see her grandfather, Giovanni Almonte, sitting beside her. His face was etched with worry, the lines around his eyes deeper than she remembered. “You’re safe now. Just take it slow.” “Grandpa?” Desire croaked, her throat dry and scratchy. “What happened? Where am I?” “You’re in the hospital,” he replied, his voice trembling slightly. “You were attacked, but you’re going to be okay. I was so worried about you.” He reached out, taking her hand in his, his grip warm a

The dimly lit bar was a sanctuary for the weary and the wicked alike. The air was thick with the scent of aged whiskey and the low hum of conversation, punctuated by the occasional clink of glasses. Chase Almonte leaned against the polished mahogany counter, swirling the amber liquid in his glass, his mind racing with thoughts of revenge. He had always been a man of ambition, but lately, that ambition had twisted into something darker, fueled by a burning hatred for his niece, Desire. As he took a sip, he spotted Louie Fernandez entering the bar, his presence commanding attention. Louie was the CEO of the prestigious Fernandez Chain of Hotels and Restaurants, a man known for his charm and business acumen. Chase waved him over, a forced smile plastered on his face, masking the turmoil within. “Chase! Good to see you, my friend,” Louie said, clapping him on the back as he settled onto the stool beside him. “What made you look like you’ve just lost a fortune at the tables?” Chase le

The night unfurled like a dark velvet curtain, speckled with diamonds that twinkled in the vast expanse above as Desire’s grandfather, Mr. Almonte, pulled into the driveway of their sprawling family home. He stepped out of his sleek black sedan, a satisfied smile etched across his face. Today had been a monumental day for his business, sealing a deal that would secure the company’s future for years to come. As he walked towards the front door, he felt a sense of pride swell within him—not just for the success, but for the family he had built and the legacy he hoped to leave behind. As he entered the house, he was greeted by the familiar scent of fresh flowers and polished wood. Chase, his son, was waiting in the living room, his face lighting up at the sight of him. “Dad! You did it!” Chase exclaimed, rushing over to give him a hearty hug. “I heard the news. Everyone’s talking about it!” Mr. Almonte chuckled, ruffling Chase’s hair affectionately. “It was a team effort, Chase. But yes

Prologue;
The sun dipped low on the horizon, casting long shadows across the winding road that snaked through the quiet suburbs. Dr. Desire Almonte leaned back in her seat, the hum of her car a soothing balm after days spent in the chaos of a medical mission. The scent of antiseptic still clung to her scrubs, a reminder of the lives she had touched and the battles fought in makeshift clinics. She had saved lives, stitched wounds, and offered hope in places where despair reigned. Now, all she wanted was to return to the comfort of her home, to the familiar embrace of her grandpa and the warmth of her own bed. For her, nothing beats the comforts of home. No matter how tired she is, her home will always be a place for her to relax and be herself. As she navigated the winding streets, her mind drifted to the faces of the patients she had treated—children with infectious smiles, mothers with weary eyes, and the elderly who had shared their stories with her. Each encounter had left an indelible mark ...
