Chapter 270: A Preemptive StrikeChris sat in his office at MTD Entertainment, his gaze fixed on the cityscape outside his window, lost in thought. His focus had been on navigating through the recent challenges that MTD faced, but a sudden buzz from his phone interrupted him.“Sir, I have an update on Georgina Brown,” his assistant’s voice crackled through the speaker.Chris’s brow raised, and he felt an unexpected sense of curiosity. “Go ahead,” he said, leaning back in his chair.“She’s been removed from her position as acting president,” the assistant reported, her tone edged with restrained excitement. “Apparently, her grandfather found out she’d signed over company shares to Sterling Horizon Capital without proper authorization.”Chris's lips curled into a small, satisfied smile. So, her reckless ambition had finally caught up with her. He’d known Georgina would make bold moves to consolidate her power, but he hadn’t expected her to slip up so spectacularly, and in such a way

Chapter 273, A Shocking RevelationGeorgina’s office felt like a cage. The sunlight streaming through the large windows only highlighted her frustration as she paced back and forth, her heels clicking sharply against the marble floor. Her mind replayed the events of the last 24 hours: the demotion, the humiliation, and now, the failure of her carefully orchestrated attack on Sterling Heritage. She slammed her hands on her desk, her face contorted with anger. How had this happened? How had Sterling Heritage managed to clear its name so quickly? And worse, how had her grandfather seen through her every move? “Something doesn’t add up,” she muttered, her voice low but venomous. Georgina had built her career on reading between the lines, on uncovering what others didn’t want to be found. If Sterling Heritage had survived her accusations so cleanly, it wasn’t just luck. There was something more—something she hadn’t seen yet. Determined to uncover the truth, she picked up her pho

Chapter 275: A Close CallChris stepped out of the office later than usual, his mind filled with the day’s events. Georgina’s recent actions and her growing desperation were troubling, but he felt oddly calm. The satisfaction of being steps ahead of her had left him feeling in control, but there was still a nagging sense of unease he couldn’t shake. Sliding into the driver’s seat of his sleek black car, Chris started the engine, the low rumble reverberating in the quiet parking lot. It was late, and the roads would be relatively clear. He planned to take the scenic route home, where he could enjoy a rare moment of solitude before the usual chaos of life greeted him. The car pulled out of the lot smoothly, and he shifted into gear, accelerating onto the main road. As he drove, the city lights blurred into streaks of gold and white, and the hum of the tires on the asphalt was almost soothing. But then, something felt… off. The steering wheel seemed heavier than usual, almost

Chapter 278: A Dangerous SlipChris had barely settled into his office when the door burst open. Georgina stormed in, her face a storm cloud of fury. He leaned back in his chair, his expression calm but his eyes sharp as they locked onto hers. “Good morning to you too, Georgina,” he said dryly. “Cut the pleasantries,” she snapped, slamming a folder onto his desk. “You’ve been meddling, haven’t you?” Chris glanced at the folder but didn’t bother opening it. “You’ll have to be more specific. I tend to be involved in a lot of things.” Her nostrils flared, and she took a step closer, her voice dropping to a hiss. “Don’t play coy with me. I know you’ve been digging into Sterling Horizon. Do you think you can outmaneuver me?” Chris smirked, folding his hands on his desk. “If I wanted to outmaneuver you, Georgina, you wouldn’t even see it coming.” Her eyes blazed with anger, and for a moment, she seemed to be holding herself back. Then she leaned over his desk, her voice dripping

Chapter 279: Quiet MovesChris sat in his office, his mind a storm of anger and resolve.Georgina had crossed every imaginable line.His parents' death, which he had carried as an unfortunate tragedy, was now revealed to be a calculated move. That she had so easily brushed off their lives in pursuit of her ambitions left him sickened.But Chris wasn't one to lash out without a plan.He leaned back in his chair, the wheels in his mind turning. Georgina was cunning, but he had learned to be one step ahead. He couldn't confront her directly-not yet. She'd deny everything, and without concrete proof, it would be a wasted effort. No, this required strategy.His first call was to Connor."Chris," Connor answered. "Any updates?""I have reason to believe my parents' accident was orchestrated," Chris said, keeping his voice steady. "Georgina Brown's fingerprints are all over it, but I need airtight evidence."Connor didn't sound surprised. "Figured as much. I'll dig deeper on my end, but yo
