Chapter 95: The Secret Invitation
The laughter hadn’t fully died down when a voice cut through the air. A group of uniformed staff entered, their presence immediately drawing attention. “Distinguished guests,” one of them announced, his voice clear and firm. “Selected individuals are invited to the VIP chamber.”A ripple of voices passed through the hall.“The VIP chamber?”“For what?”“Who’s inside? And it looks important for them to select people.”“Ms. Victoria Kensington,” the staff called out.“Mr. Daniel Park, Mr. Alessandro De Luca, Ms. Sophia Laurent and Mr. Alejandro Vargas.”The audience gave out a thunderous applause as the group walked up to the front of the podium with no so much of a glance at Arabella.The announcer’s eyes swept through the hall and landed on Arabella. “And Ms. Arabella Zade.”The atmosphere in the room shifted.“Huh? Who’s that?” Someone asked.“That woman?”“She’s the Apex CEO, isn’t she? The one who rose too fast…”A scoff followed.“Of course she did.”“People like her shouldn’t

Arabella’s voice wasn’t loud but carried enough volume as it cut cleanly though the air stunning her listeners. A brief silence followed.Then Alessandro chuckled, slow and deliberate. “You’re bold. I must give you that because most people would know when they have embarrassed themselves enough to find a hole to hide in.”Arabella met his gaze. “I didn’t come here to walk away or hide.”Victoria crossed her arms, her gaze as sharp as pointed knives. “Fine,” she said. “Since you are so eager to prove yourself to us, let’s see if there’s actually something being the noise.”Daniel tilted his glass lazily. “Let’s make this interesting.”Alejandro turned fully to face her. “We were discussing European expansion,” he began. “Logistics, the market instability and supply chain fractures.”He paused as he studied her.“Enlighten us.”Arabella didn’t hesitate to respond. “If Apex expands into Europe,” she said. “We won’t prioritise immediate profit.”A flicker of surprise crossed Sophia’s fa

This was a test.“Apex Group is built on—”“Connections?” Victoria cut in smoothly.“Or luck?” Daniel added.“Or…” Sophia’s smile deepened slightly, “…strategic relationships?”The meaning behind her words was clear. The air around them shifted as a few nearby guests had begun to pay attention.Arabella’s fingers curled slightly at her side, but her voice remained steady. “My company is built on results.”Silence lingered for a brief moment.Then—Alejandro gave a soft, almost amused exhale. “Resu
Chapter 92: Business Giants:
The Opulence hotel was buzzing with the activities of the Global Business Summit. The hall shimmered beneath cascading crystal chandeliers, their golden lights reflecting off polished marble floors. Waiters with tray of glasses of champagne balanced on one hand weaved through the crowd with calculated steps. Outside, Luxury cars stretched in an endless line, each more expensive than the last, while heavily armed security stood at every corner, their sharp eyes scanning the crowd. This was where power was gathered. Where empires were built and destroyed. Arabella Zade stepped through the towering glass doors, her heels clicking softly against the marble floor. Conversations stopped for a brief second not out of awe but of recognition. A few head turned as she walked deeper into the hall.
