87 - The Chen Family Falls? (II)
"Do it," Marcus said. "You have Titan's full support. Legal. Financial. Whatever you need. The Chen family name deserves better than Richard. Deserves you.""Thank you, sir." Sora stood. "I won't let you down. Won't let my father's memory down. By the time I'm done, people will remember the Chen family for what we built. Not what Richard destroyed."She left. Jake followed. They drove back to Titan in silence. Sora already planning. Already strategizing."It's perfect. No legal battle. No drawn-out court case. Just. Restoration. The Chen family assets return to the Chen family line. To me. Where they belong." Sora stood. Walked to the window. "My father built something. Created a legacy. Richard destroyed it. Used it. Betrayed it. Now I'm taking it back. Rebuilding it. Making the Chen name mean something again."Jake watched her. Saw the determination. The focus. This wasn't about revenge. Wasn't about hurting Richard's family. This was about reclaiming stolen heritage. About becoming
The Chen Family Falls? (I)
One week passed. Seven days since Sora destroyed Richard Chen in that visiting room. Seven days of watching his life crumble piece by piece. Brick by brick. Until nothing remained.Richard's wife filed divorce papers on day two. Emergency custody granted on day three. His eldest son's viral denouncement hit ten million views on day four. His lawyer quit on day five, citing "irreconcilable differences with client's moral character." By day six, Richard's former business partners wouldn't return calls. Wouldn't acknowledge knowing him. Wouldn't touch anything with the Chen name attached.By day seven, Richard Chen sat alone in his cell. Orange jumpsuit. Shackles. Nothing. No family. No friends. No future. Just concrete walls and the knowledge of what he'd done. What he'd destroyed. What he'd become.But Sora wasn't satisfied.Jake drove her to the secure facility where Marcus was recovering. Different city. Different state. Only Harrison and Sora knew the exact location. Maximum securit
85 - Silver Lining
Morning came too soon. Jake woke to Sora shaking his shoulder. "Get up. We have a situation."He blinked. Disoriented. "What time is it?""Seven AM. You slept for nine hours. Congratulations. But now we have a problem." She handed him coffee. Strong. Black. Perfect. "Richard's wife filed for divorce. His son denounced him. All according to plan. But something else happened. Something I didn't predict.""What?""Richard's lawyer called. Said Richard tried to kill himself last night. Makeshift noose from his bedsheet. Guards found him in time. He's in the medical wing. On suicide watch." Sora's expression was complicated. "The lawyer's saying it's our fault. That we pushed him too hard. That we're responsible for driving an attempted murderer to despair."Jake sat up. Fully awake now. "Are we? Responsible?""Legally? No. Morally?" Sora paused. "I don't care. He tried to kill the chairman. Watched him deteriorate and did nothing. If he can't handle the consequences, that's on him. Not us
84 - Good Thing She's With Me
"Richard's lawyer. Asking if we can negotiate. Apparently Richard's having a breakdown. Panic attack. They're worried about suicide watch." Sora pocketed the phone. "Good. Let him panic. Let him feel what the chairman felt. Struggling to breathe. Heart racing. Thinking he was going to die. Except the chairman didn't deserve it. Richard does."Jake studied her as they drove. This version of Sora was new. Harder. More ruthless. It was impressive. Also slightly terrifying. "Are you okay? I mean. That was brutal. Even for you.""I'm fine." Sora stared out the window. Watching the city pass by. "I've been planning this for three days. Since we found out it was him. Since Harrison showed us the evidence. The arsenic in the chairman's food. The systematic poisoning. Richard's access to the chairman's private meals. Every step. Every move. I knew exactly what I was going to say. Exactly how to hurt him. And it worked. Perfectly.""He's your uncle. Your blood. Doesn't that bother you?""He tri
83 - Retribution Begins
The federal detention center smelled like disinfectant and despair. Sora walked through the security checkpoint. Metal detector. Pat down. Visitor badge. The whole routine. She'd been here before. Other cases. Other traitors. But this time was different.This time it was family.Jake waited in the lobby. Offered to come with her. She refused. This needed to be private. Personal. Between her and the man who destroyed everything.The visiting room was small. Gray walls. Gray table. Gray chairs. Everything designed to crush hope. To break spirits. Perfect for what Sora had planned.Richard Chen sat on the other side of the plexiglass. Shackled. Orange jumpsuit. Face gaunt. He'd lost weight. Lost sleep. Lost everything that made him the confident board member who'd smiled at her during meetings.Good.He picked up the phone. Sora picked up hers. They stared at each other through the glass. Uncle and niece. Family. Or what used to be family."Sora." His voice cracked. "Thank you for coming
82 - I'm Sure She's Alive, Somewhere!
They returned to Titan headquarters. To Elena, still waiting in her holding room.She stood when they entered. Relief flooding her face. Actually flooding. Like she'd been holding her breath for hours and could finally exhale."You're alive. You made it back." Her voice cracked. "I heard explosions. Saw the news reports about a building collapse downtown. Thought. Thought maybe you didn't make it.""We did," Jake said. His voice was flat. Tired. Covered in dust and dried sweat."I didn't run. Didn't call anyone. Didn't do anything except wait. Just like you said." Elena gestured around the small room. "The guards can confirm. I've been here. The whole time. Just. Waiting."Elijah leaned against the doorframe. Arms crossed. Watching her with that casual intensity he did sometimes. Like he was seeing more than just surface level.Jake studied Elena. Exhausted. Covered in dust from the collapsed building. Every muscle aching. But this needed to be said. Needed to be addressed."Your moth
