Mario’s eyes widened as he shot up from his seat, his expression caught between shock and forced enthusiasm.“Aurora! What a surprise! I had no idea you were back!” he said, feigning delight.Aurora smirked, tilting her head slightly. “Didn’t you? I’m pretty sure we sent you an invitation to my wedding. You never showed up.” She glanced around the room. “I can see why—you’ve been busy.”Mario chuckled nervously. “Ah, Aurora, this is nothing, really. Just a simple business discussion. Should we talk outside?” He took a step toward her as if trying to steer her away.Aurora raised an eyebrow. “About what? About selling the company?”Mario stiffened. His nervous chuckle faltered. “O-Oh… Haha! No! Of course not!” He leaned in slightly, lowering his voice. “Let’s talk outside,” he whispered, his tone more urgent, his face now serious.Aurora was amused by how desperate Mario was to stop her from speaking in front of the guests. Ignoring him, she turned her attention to the three individual

Aurora stood before the vast glass window of her new office, the city lights below twinkling like stars captured in the night sky. The weight of the past few weeks settled on her shoulders—not with exhaustion, but with a deep, undeniable satisfaction. Lancaster Tech Innovations was back. And it was hers.She had spent countless hours undoing the damage her uncle had inflicted. One by one, she reinstated the talented employees he had unjustly fired—those who had once made LTI the powerhouse it used to be. She personally oversaw the restructuring of departments, making sure that no trace of Mario’s corruption remained. The siphoned funds? Retrieved. The reputation? Slowly, but steadily, being rebuilt.Now, Lancaster Tech Innovations was no longer a crumbling empire. It was standing tall again, its doors wide open to the public. And tonight, the world would witness its rebirth.A grand reopening gala had been arranged in her honor, marking her official return as CEO. It wasn’t just a par

“Ethan? Ethan!”Vanessa banged on the door of Ethan’s apartment, her frustration boiling over. She had been trying to reach him for days, but he ignored all her calls and messages. Ever since they learned about Aurora’s true identity, Ethan had completely shut her out.“Ethan! Fuck!”She kicked the door in frustration, but there was no response. Growling under her breath, she tried entering the passcode, only to realize—she didn’t know it.Her jaw clenched. Ethan wasn’t in his penthouse, the one where he used to take her. That much she had already checked. Luckily, his secretary had let it slip that Ethan also owned a condo unit where he sometimes stayed.A condo she hadn’t even known about.That alone made her blood boil.“You are really testing my patience, Ethan! Why are you doing this?!” she shouted, slamming her fist against the door once more.Before she could start yelling again, a man approached her, his expression disapproving.“Excuse me, miss? You can’t do that.”Vanessa whi

Aurora pushed open the glass door of the meeting room, her heels clicking against the polished floor. Ethan stood up immediately, a practiced smile spreading across his face."Aurora! Thank you for—""I'm giving you five minutes, Mr. Calloway. What do you need?" Aurora cut in, her voice cold and impassive. She strode to the head of the table and took a seat, her posture commanding.Ethan cleared his throat, caught off guard by her abruptness. He wasn't used to this side of her. He settled into the chair beside her, attempting to mask his irritation."How have you been? I've been calling, but—"Aurora raised a hand, silencing him. "If you're here to waste my time with pleasantries, you can leave now. Consider yourself lucky I’m giving you five minutes at all."Ethan’s jaw clenched, his grip tightening on the folder in his hands. The shift in her demeanor was unnerving. The woman who once tiptoed around him, soft-spoken and eager to please, was gone. In her place sat someone he barely r

Ethan’s grip on Vanessa’s wrist was firm but not forceful as he pulled her through the automatic doors of the building. The moment they stepped into the parking lot, she yanked her arm free, spinning around to face him."What the hell, Ethan?" she seethed, rubbing her wrist as if he had burned her. "Are you seriously dragging me out like some—some crazed woman?!"Ethan exhaled sharply, running a frustrated hand through his hair. His patience had been stretched thin, and the spectacle Vanessa had just put on only made things worse."You are acting like a crazed woman," he shot back. "Storming into Aurora’s company, screaming accusations in front of her employees? Do you even realize how humiliating that was?"Vanessa’s eyes flashed with anger. "Humiliating? You think I care about humiliation when my fiancé is sneaking around with his ex?" She took a step closer, jabbing a finger against his chest. "Tell me, Ethan. What were you really doing here? Why do you need her so badly?"Ethan’s
