Christopher made his way to his grandfather’s study. The polished wooden floors gleamed under the light, and the air was thick with the scent of aged leather and old books. The study had always been a sanctuary for Chairman Conrad, a place where he could think and strategize away from the prying eyes of the world.Christopher knocked lightly on the door before entering. "Grandfather, are you in here?" he called softly."Come in, Christopher," Chairman Conrad’s voice came, steady yet carrying a note of weariness.Christopher stepped inside, closing the door behind him. He immediately noticed the tension etched on his grandfather’s face. Chairman Conrad sat behind his massive oak desk, the morning light casting shadows that seemed to mirror the heaviness in his heart."How was your first week back at work, Christopher?" Chairman Conrad asked, attempting to sound casual.Christopher walked over and took a seat opposite his grandfather. "It was productive. The team is motivated, and Yue W

Larry Conrad sat in his dimly lit study, the soft glow of the desk lamp casting long shadows on the walls. The recent revelations about Sapphira had turned his world upside down. She was not just a conspirator; she was James’s sister. The brother-in-law he never knew about had suddenly become a key figure in the tangled web of his family's history.Larry leaned back in his chair, running a hand through his graying hair. The memories of his sister, Grace, flooded back to him—her laughter, her strength, and ultimately, her tragic death. He had always wondered about the circumstances surrounding her demise, but the truth had been elusive. Now, he had a chance to confront those responsible and seek the answers he had been denied for so long."James’s sister," he muttered to himself, shaking his head in disbelief. "How could I not have known?"The pieces were beginning to fall into place, but there were still many unanswered questions. Why had Sapphira been conspiring against his father, C

Larry listened, his emotions a whirlwind. "And Cosmos? How does he fit into this?""Cosmos is my son," Sapphira confessed, her voice barely above a whisper. "He was born out of a relationship I had before James. He knew about our past and our hatred for Chairman Conrad. We decided to take matters into our own hands."Larry's eyes widened in shock. "Your son? But why conspire against the family now, after all these years?"Sapphira looked up, her eyes filled with sorrow. "We thought we could bring down your father, take away everything he held dear. But it got out of hand. We were consumed by our hatred and lost sight of everything else."Larry's heart ached for her. He could see the pain and regret etched on her face. "Sapphira, I need to know something. Was it all just about revenge? Or was there something more?"She nodded, tears streaming down her face. "It was mostly about revenge. But there was also a part of me that wanted to protect you, Larry. I knew you were out there, suffer

"Good morning, team," Christopher began. "I hope you're all ready for another productive day. Let's start with an update on the Conrad X1. Richard, how are we doing with the production?"Richard stepped forward, his face beaming with pride. "We're on track, Mr. Conrad. The production line is running smoothly, and we're meeting our targets. We've also received some fantastic feedback from our initial customers. They love the car's performance and design.""That's great to hear," Yue Wang said. "What about the next phase of the project?
