13: The Knight
As expected, the Blake estate had no warmth in it, and to anyone else passing by on the outside, the massive mansion could still look like a castle full of luxury and power. But to Kimberly, alone in her bedroom, the house was a cold cage built of lies and deceit.She sat at her study desk upstairs. Her schoolbooks were open in front of her, and her history notebook lay flat, but her homework remained untouched.Her sharp ears were tuned to the muffled sounds echoing up from the lower floors. Downstairs, heavy, quick footsteps and angry shouts bounced off the hallways.Daniel Thornton was pacing back and forth across the executive parlor again, barking furious orders into his phone, losing his mind because his fragile business empire was crumbling around him piece by piece.Kimberly listened to the rising panic and desperation in his voice without a single thought of sympathy. Instead, a cold and ste
12: You're Finished!
NovaCore’s sleek glass headquarters was crisp, but everywhere inside was charged with high momentum.Morgan Vance sat at his desk, reviewing a series of encrypted financial logs displayed on his dual monitors.The fallout from the Skyline City suspension was still trending across the New York business district, but Morgan wasn't looking backward.He understood that in the grand game of corporate chess, you never waste time admiring a captured pawn when the king's defense is still wide open for more attacks.A soft knock thudded on the frosted glass door, and Elena, the gorgeous lady he saved her ass about a month ago from her uncle, stepped into the room.She carried a slim leather portfolio, her expression a mix of professional pride and satisfaction."The meeting with the international tech delegates is locked in for this afternoon," Elena said, stepping cl
11: Mysterious Morgan Vance
The silence inside the executive boardroom of Sterling Horizon Group was heavy enough to be felt.Daniel Thornton stood at the head of the long table, his face drained of all color, staring at the official suspension notice showing on the wall monitor.The bold red letters spelled out a pathetic reality he refused to accept: Skyline City Project Halted Indefinitely by Federal and Municipal Decree.This was real!"...This is a… mistake," Daniel stammered, his voice cracking slightly as he looked around the room.His hands gripped the edge of the table so tightly his knuckles turned white in disbelief. "It’s probably a bureaucratic error. A temporary glitch. My team is already sorting it out with the zoning commission."None of the board members moved, or offered a reassuring nod. They sat like statues with cold, calculating eyes locked onto him.<
10: Counterattack
Daniel Thornton slammed both hands onto the table. The sharp sound echoed through the room."Enough!"Every board member looked up."For months. We've done nothing but react to Chairman Morgan."His voice grew harder. "That ends today."He pointed toward the large screen."Our future begins with one project."The screen lit up. A futuristic skyline appeared; across the top were three bold words.[Skyline City]The board members leaned forward. Daniel's confidence slowly returned."This project combines smart infrastructure, renewable energy, and AI-driven city management.""If we launch first, Sterling Horizon Group will lead the market again!"One shareholder slowly smiled."The investors will love it."Another nodded eagerly. "This could restore our reputation."For the first time in weeks, hope returned to the boardroom. Daniel looked around proudly."We're finished playing defense. This time… Chairman Morgan will be the one chasing us."Within the hour, breaking news spread across

The middle-aged man accepted a microphone."Ladies and gentlemen… Our family has decided that NovaCore Technologies will merge with Titan Digital Solutions."Soft applause echoed through the hall.Elena immediately
008: Invitation Nobody Wanted
Daniel placed the weekly business reports on the table. "Our share price keeps dropping another three percent."A shareholder sighed."We're losing confidence every day."Another added, "If this continues, investors will completely pull out."Victoria looked around the room. "We need something that restores public confidence."Then another shareholder spoke."Our annual Investors' Gala is next week."Several heads turned. He continued, "If we can make the event a success, perhaps the market will calm down."Daniel nodded slowly. "That's our opportunity."The fourth shareholder frowned. "But who will attend? Our biggest partners have already left. Our strongest supporters are gone."Victoria thought for a moment, then she quietly said,"What if we invite Chairman Morgan?"Gaps filled the space. One of the shareholders almost laughed."Chairman Morgan? After everything that's happened?""He'll never accept."Daniel looked at the table and slowly smiled."I'll invite him personally."The
