ALABAMA CORPORATIONMeanwhile, Leo was seated at his desk, his eyes fixed on the computer screen in utter disbelief. The video that had just been uploaded to the company's website was rapidly spreading across social media like wildfire. It exposed the unsanitary and unethical practices that occurred during the production of their wine, revealing a side of the business that was meant to be kept hidden.As the number of views on the video skyrocketed into the millions, Leo could feel a surge of anger and frustration building up inside him.This was not how he had envisioned the reputation of his company being tarnished. He had dedicated so much time and effort to building up the brand, only to see it crumble in an instant."What on earth is this!" he exclaimed.Standing behind him, his wife Andrea watched the video with a horrified expression on her face."Leo, I can't believe this is happening," she said, her voice filled with worry.Leo turned to face her, his eyes burning with fury.

Evan observed his secretary, Marga, sitting silently at her desk, her gaze fixed on him with an expressionless face. Perplexed, he furrowed his brow, trying to comprehend her uncharacteristic silence.Curiosity piqued, Evan inquired, his voice devoid of warmth or concern, "Is something troubling you, Marga?"After a brief pause, Marga shook her head and softly replied, "No, Sir. I'm perfectly fine."Growing impatient, Evan sighed, his tolerance waning. "If there's an issue bothering you, I need to be informed. We have a substantial workload today, and I cannot afford any distractions."Contemplating her options, Marga nervously bit her lip, aware of Evan's domineering and arrogant nature. Opting to avoid unnecessary conflict, she chose to keep her thoughts to herself."It's nothing, Sir. I'm just feeling a bit off today. There's no need to worry," Marga reassured him, forcing a smile onto her face.Evan arched an eyebrow, detecting her discomfort. "Okay. If there's nothing else, you

"And who is it? Evan? huh?" Leo snapped back, the name slipping out involuntarily.The mere mention of Andrea's ex-husband only intensified the burning fire within him. He couldn't forget how Andrea had suffered in her marriage to Evan because Evan is just poor.How he had failed to provide her with emotional and financial support.Mrs. Sanchez's eyes widened in surprise at Leo's words. She could see the anger and pain in his eyes, simmering just beneath the surface. She tried to respond, but Leo interrupted her."I am not the poor Evan. I am not some weak man who can't take care of his family," Leo declared, frustration evident in his voice."I am not impotent or poor. Despite my current struggles in the company, I am still a wealthy man."However, Mrs. Sanchez couldn't shake the feeling that Leo was no longer suitable for her daughter, that he would never meet the standards she had set. She had always believed that money was the most important aspect of life, that financial security

Their conversation was interrupted when Evan, suddenly appeared before them.Leo frowned, not entirely pleased to see Evan after all that had transpired between him and Andrea. But before he could say anything, a police captain approached Evan with a respectful nod."Mr. Winston, I’m glad to see you again,” I said.Mr. Sanchez came up and saw Evan and approached him with a big smile.“I want to thank you for your assistance in helping to pay the bail for me," the captain said, surprising both Andrea and Leo.Leo's jaw dropped in shock as he turned to Andrea, who looked equally surprised by the turn of events."Evan, you helped pay the bail?" Andrea asked, her voice tinged with disbelief.Evan nodded, a sheepish expression on his face."I know we haven't always seen eye to eye, Andrea. But when I heard about your father being arrested, I couldn't just sit back and do nothing. Mr. Sanchez called me and I felt it was the right thing to do."Leo couldn't believe what he was hearing. Despi

As they stood by the bedside, Marga's whispered words echoed in Evan's mind. He had always been known for his aloof and unfeeling demeanor, but the raw vulnerability etched upon Marga's face shattered his icy exterior.Memories of his own parents, lost tragically in a car accident when he was a child, came flooding back. The unbearable pain and loneliness he had endured in the aftermath of their passing left an unhealed wound within him."I understand you, Marga," he murmured, his voice uncharacteristically gentle, "I know what it's like to lose someone you love so I can’t let your mother died without doing anything for this matter."Marga turned to him, her eyes filled with both gratitude and surprise. She had never expected such empathy from the cold and distant man she had encountered before."My parents were killed in a car accident when I was young," Evan continued, his voice trembling slightly. "I was alone, and I didn't know what to do,""But you survived," Marga whispered, "Yo
