Nathan’s voice flowed through the sleek, glass-walled boardroom like silk over steel, steady, rich, and impossible to ignore. Every sentence carried weight, every pause held meaning. His presentation slides gleamed on the wide screen behind him, but he hardly looked back at them.He didn’t need to. He went on presenting.“The beauty of this model,” he said, gesturing toward the projected graph, “is in its adaptability. Each branch can implement the strategy in stages, reducing overall cost while maintaining market visibility.”He glanced around the table, meeting the eyes of the partners one by one. “In three months, we’ll not only recover last quarter’s losses but record a ten percent net increase. The numbers are modest, but they’re realistic. And that’s what makes them powerful.”The room was silent, save for the soft hum of the air conditioning and the occasional rustle of papers. Nathan continued, calm and unwavering. He didn’t read from his notes. He didn’t need reassurance.Inw

Gregg’s head whipped toward Mr. Hanley, his face paling as the words sank in. “Him, the new manager?” he exclaimed, his voice carrying a crack that made a few heads turn. “Mr. Hanley, please don’t pull my leg. I didn’t drop any resignation letter before today, and how can this boy be able to replace me?”Gasps and muffled chuckles rippled faintly around the table, but Hanley only shrugged, unbothered. The old man leaned back in his chair, his gaze firm and unshaken. “Because the boy is efficient,” he said calmly. “I’m the oldest partner of Dynasty Group, Gregg. I’ve seen men come and go, and I can testify that I’ve not seen any young man like him. His type doesn’t come by except once in a century.”Gregg’s mouth opened but no words came. He lowered his head, shame burning the edges of his pride like acid. The conference room felt colder, the silence heavier. For the first time in a long while, the attention wasn’t on him, it was on someone younger, smarter, and far more composed.Bu

“Now,” Liera continued, her tone businesslike but her smile warm, “I’m going to arrange a better office for you, Master. You don’t need to stay in any of the open offices.”Nathan blinked at her, then let out a soft chuckle. “That’s not necessary, Liera.”“But, young Master,” she protested immediately, stepping around her desk as if closing the space would make her point firmer, “your comfort is my priority. In fact…” she gestured to the very office they stood in, “you can stay here. It’s actually supposed to be your office. I don’t feel good about you squeezing yourself into any lesser, unconducive space.”Nathan’s voice was steady but kind. “Don’t worry, Liera. I told you before, I want to work here in an undercover position. That also means I’ll have my workspace in the regular open office like the low-class staff.”She frowned, biting her lip as though weighing how far she could argue. “But you heard the partners,” she pressed softly. “They said you deserve a promotion because of

The entire lobby froze. Heads whipped toward Natalia in shock, eyes widening at the rare sight before them. None of the staff had ever seen their boss so furious, let alone publicly condemn someone so fiercely for disrespecting Nathan. The air thickened with silence, the kind that crackles right before a storm breaks.Clarke stood there, mouth slightly agape, her confidence crumbling under Natalia’s glare. “H-Husband?” she stammered, her voice small and unsteady. Her gaze darted between Nathan and Natalia, disbelief wrinkling her brow. “But, Ms., you’re divorced.”“Shut up,” Natalia snapped sharply, her tone cold and final. “For repeatedly insulting Nathan, you’re fired, Clarke.”A collective gasp rippled through the lobby. Clarke’s face drained of color, and even Nathan stiffened beside her, shock sweeping through him. He had seen Natalia in control, composed, and calculating, but never this angry. Her voice carried heat, her eyes burning like she was defending something precious.“N

Natalia blinked, stunned. Of all things, she hadn’t expected that from Nathan. He had been so cold the night before, distant and guarded, a shadow of the man she once knew. But now, here he was, insisting on taking her to the hospital himself. It caught her off balance, like hearing a melody she hadn’t realized she missed until it played again.“You… you’ll take me?” she asked softly, her voice uncertain.Nathan’s expression didn’t waver. His dark eyes were steady, his tone calm but firm. “You’re stressing yourself too much,” he said, slipping his hands into his pockets. “Don’t shrug this headache off. You need to take proper care of yourself.”She tilted her head, almost incredulous. “You’re… concerned?” Her tone was half-teasing, half-skeptical, as if she didn’t quite believe what she was hearing.Nathan forced a grimace, as though rejecting the suggestion immediately. “I’m not concerned,” he said, his tone clipped. “I just won’t stand by and watch you looking distressed, especially

The nurse inhaled sharply. “A mother and her twins’ lives are in danger, sir.”The atmosphere in the hospital room shifted instantly at the nurse’s wordsThe words hung in the air, heavy and chilling, as Nathan and Natalia exchanged glances, each feeling the sudden, sharp weight of the moment.Doctor Lowe, who had been calm and professional moments ago, froze mid-sentence. His brows knitted together, confusion and alarm flashing across his face.“What?” he demanded sharply. “Hasn’t the operation pushed through yet?”The nurse looked visibly shaken, her voice trembling slightly. “No, Doctor Ric. Things are… complicated now. That’s why your attention is urgently needed.”Doctor Lowe’s shoulders stiffened. “Complicated how?”“The mother’s condition is worsening. Her heart rate is unstable. Doctor Grey said she might not make it through the next thirty minutes without immediate intervention.”Lowe exhaled, running a tired hand through his hair. “I’ll be there right away.” He turned toward

They all turned to Nathan, their faces a collage of shock, disbelief, and annoyance, everyone except Natalia, who looked more confused than anything else. The words he had just spoken hung in the air like a live current, tense and humming.Dr. Grey, his expression tightening, broke the silence first. “Do you think this is funny?” he demanded, his tone sharp enough to draw a few heads from nearby nurses.Nathan didn’t flinch. He simply stood his ground, posture firm, face calm, his gaze unwavering. “I’m not joking,” he said evenly. “I want to help. I can save the mother and her unborn twins.”The words drew a collective gasp from the family and even the medical staff nearby. Dr. Grey’s brows shot up, disbelief replacing irritation.“You?” he scoffed, taking a step closer, eyes narrowing. “And what qualifications do you have to make such a ridiculous claim? Are you even a resident doctor in any hospital within this city?”Nathan’s voice stayed measured. “No. I work for no hospital.”A m

Dr. Grey’s proud voice seemed to have been lost when the tall man entered the corridor. His jaw dropped slightly before he recovered, straightening his coat and bowing with uncharacteristic politeness.“Dr. Mitch! It’s… It’s good to see you, sir!” he said quickly, his tone completely different from the arrogance he had displayed seconds ago.The others, Natalia, the patient’s family, the nurses, and even Dr. Lowe, turned toward the newcomer. Dr. Mitch was a man who carried the air of distinction without trying. His silver hair, neatly combed back, framed a face that was calm but commanding. He was known throughout the country, not only as one of the most respected doctors in the city but also as a board member of the remarkable National Medical Association. He rarely showed up at any hospital except for high-level emergencies or official evaluations.Even Dr. Lowe blinked, clearly surprised to see him here. But what followed next left everyone completely dumbfounded.Ignoring the gree

Dr. Grey’s face froze, the color draining from it as the words hung thickly in the room. And in the silence that followed, even the monitors seemed to slow their rhythmic beeping.The weight of Dr. Mitch’s words pressed on everyone present. The nurses looked from one doctor to another, waiting for instructions, while Dr. Lowe folded his arms and stared at the unconscious woman on the operating table. The faint mechanical hiss of the ventilator filled the sterile air.But Grey refused to let the sting of humiliation hold him down. He straightened abruptly, forcing a tight, almost defiant smile. “I don’t think so, Dr. Mitch,” he said, voice tight but steady. “Let’s get on this, shall we? The patient can’t wait.”Dr. Mitch only arched a brow, his eyes unreadable behind his surgical mask.Grey turned toward the table, snapping on a new pair of gloves with sharp, angry tugs. His pride burned inside him like fire. He’ll see, he told himself, they’ll all see. If he could pull this off, save

Natalia walked out of the hospital beside Nathan, the faint scent of antiseptic clinging to her clothes. The late afternoon breeze met them halfway through the corridor, carrying the sterile chill of the hospital with it. Her steps were slow but steady, a paper bag of prescribed vitamins held against her chest. Nathan walked beside her, quiet as ever, his hands tucked into his pockets.The sun had slipped beyond the horizon, leaving the streetlights to take over the task of lighting their way.“Don’t skip the vitamins,” Nathan said, breaking the silence as they passed through the glass doors. His tone was matter-of-fact, but there was a thread of concern that softened his voice. “And don’t forget what Dr. Lowe told you about your rest schedule. You need to take it seriously.”Natalia smiled faintly, adjusting the strap of her bag. “I’ll remember,” she murmured, though her eyes flicked toward him, reading the unspoken meaning behind his words. He wasn’t just concerned, he was deflectin
