Melissa visited her parents again. She sat beside her father.“Melissa, darling, look at this headline!” Mrs. Turner gushed, holding up her tablet. Ethan Reed — the prodigal businessman returns! Reed Industries expands into the global tech market.Melissa smiled, her red lips curving in satisfaction. “He always said he’d make it big. And he did.”Mr. Turner chuckled. “Unlike that dreamer you married. What was his name again? Daniel?”“Don’t remind me,” Melissa muttered. “He’s out of my life for good.” “ I do not have interest in him. As it stands, I am ready to get him divorced.” She replied.“ You got it right, I have been meaning to ask you such. Get him divorced so you will live the rest of your life with Ethan.” Mr Turner said to her, taking off his eyeglasses.Mrs. Turner patted her daughter’s hand. “And that’s exactly how it should be. Ethan is hosting a charity gala this weekend. He personally invited you.”Melissa raised a brow. “Me?”“ I was with him last yesterday, he didn'

Two months had passed since the SolarGrid fallout.Turner Industries was collapsing fast.Inside the boardroom, chaos ruled. Reporters flooded the entrance, employees whispered, and stockholders demanded answers.Ethan slammed his fist against the table. “We’re not finished! Do you hear me? We can bounce back!”But no one responded.One executive finally stood. “Without SolarGrid, no one trusts us, Ethan. Every major investor pulled out. The company’s reputation is destroyed.”Ethan’s jaw tightened. “Then we’ll rebuild!”The man sighed. “With what? You’ve burned every bridge.”And just like that — they walked out, one after another.Melissa stood at the doorway, her voice trembling. “Ethan… maybe it’s time to accept it’s over.”He turned sharply. “Don’t you dare say that!”She flinched. “I’m just saying—”“You started this!” Ethan spat. “You and your family. You chased status, you wanted Daniel gone — and now look where that got us!”Her eyes filled with tears. “Don’t blame me for you

Daniel Carter stood before the main console, his jaw tight, his voice low and dangerous.“Run the trace again,” he ordered.A technician shook his head nervously. “Sir, the breach originated from an internal terminal. No external source. It’s… it’s someone within SolarGrid.”Daniel’s eyes darkened. “Find out who.”He turned toward Clara, who stood by the glass wall, her expression unreadable.“Lock down all access cards,” Daniel said. “No one leaves until we have answers.”Clara nodded — but her eyes flickered with something Daniel couldn’t place. Worry. Or guilt.Hours later, deep in the restricted data room, Clara inserted a small drive into the main server. Her hands trembled slightly.Lines of encrypted code began to copy onto the drive.She whispered, “I don’t have a choice…”A voice echoed from behind her.“No, Clara. You made your choice.”Her blood turned cold.Daniel stepped out of the shadows, eyes blazing with betrayal.“Tell me why,” he said quietly.Clara froze, tears fil

Turner’s name was splattered across every business network. Ethan’s empire was in shambles. Melissa’s face dominated every gossip feed — “The Woman Who Betrayed Both Men.”But the real storm hadn’t begun.In a hidden villa outside the city, Turner sat before a digital board glowing with encrypted data. His hands trembled slightly, but his eyes burned with ruthless clarity. Across from him, Ethan nursed a bruised ego and a bottle of whiskey. Melissa stood between them, her expression cold, calculating.“We underestimated him,” Turner said, voice low. “Daniel doesn’t just fight back — he predicts.”Ethan scoffed. “So what now? He ruined us. The investors are gone. The government’s watching. You want to just roll over?”Turner’s gaze sharpened. “No. I want to understand how he did it. No man operates with that kind of precision unless he’s hiding something bigger.”Melissa frowned. “You think Daniel’s not just defending his empire — he’s protecting a secret?”Turner nodded. “Exactly.
