“Great,” Sofina said. “I need to go to Eden Group in the morning anyway—to report today’s results from our side. I’ll head to the reunion straight from the Eden office.”

Renata’s eyes widened. “You are? Can I go with you? I want to see more of Eden Group. After that, we can head to Winchester Stadium together at noon—with your car.”

Sofina shot her a teasing smile.

“Well, throw that plan straight out the window. I don’t have a car. I take taxis or buses. And sometimes Alex picks me up on his bicycle. So tomorrow, we’re taking a taxi.”

“A taxi… again?” Renata groaned dramatically, like the word caused her physical pain. “Sofina, you’re a director now. Why don’t you buy a car?”

Sofina sighed. “Alex won a bet last time and gave me a luxury car, but to avoid family problems, I returned it to Nikolas.”

She rubbed her forehead tiredly.

“I just started working. I haven’t earned anything yet. And on top of that, my mother keeps asking me for money. Once I send everything to her, I barely have

    Ragnar’s face went from red to green to a furious, sickly mix of both.He shook violently, trying to contain himself, but the humiliation—the betrayal—and the open mocking crashed into him like a sledgehammer to the skull.For the first time in his life, he understood what it felt like to be used, to be cheated on, to be made a fool of by the woman he had worshipped as “pure.”He lunged at Sybilla and slapped her hard, again and again, each blow echoing across the Celestial Garden.“You bitch!” he roared, his voice cracking with fury. “You lied to me! You filthy bastard—how dare you drag me into the dirt with someone like you! You forced me to touch trash! I’ll kill you, slut—I swear I’ll kill you!”Sybilla screamed, her voice breaking as she staggered backward, her hair whipping wildly with every strike.Ragnar kept hitting her, each word laced with venom.“How dare you do this to me, you filthy bitch!”Sybilla had sacrificed everything—, even dragging her parents deep into debt—just

    Sybilla froze the moment whispers swept through the Celestial Garden.The guests weren’t even trying to hide it anymore—every glance, every murmur, every stifled laugh was aimed at her and Ragnar.She snapped.“Shut up! Shut up! It’s all bullshit!” she shrieked, her voice cracking with panic.Then the giant screen lit up.A video flickered onto the screen—grainy, brutal, and unforgiving.Not just one clip. Not just one photo.Dozens of images flashed in sequence.Sybilla tangled with a man in a hotel room.Then another.And another.A whole gallery of her hidden life—laid bare for everyone to see.The entire garden fell into stunned silence.Eve’s voice—smooth, bright, cruel—flooded the air.“Wow, this one is incredible. And there are more. Several times, Sybilla checked into a hotel with three to five men at once. Was that a sixth-some? It seems you learned plenty from your past experiences and shared the sex lessons with Ragnar, the Duke’s son.”“So tell me, Ragnar… how does it feel

    There were eight dukes in Prussia, each ruling a vast territory, each holding power like a king.Duke Eisenwall was one of them — and he stood firmly with the Technocratic Faction, the new movement that worshipped progress. They believed AI should lead humanity forward, no questions asked.Opposing them was the Order of Nature, the conservative faction that clung to the old path — humans must follow the law of nature, not machines.And then there was the Neutral Circle, a third power formed by natural-born dukes and their nobles. They walked a razor-thin line between the two giants, shifting their stance every time the wind changed.Sofina’s breath tightened the moment she saw Ragnar Eisenwall.A ghost from her past.The man she once thought was the brightest star in their youth — the alpha, the golden boy, the one everyone chased.But he had been her greatest mistake.Her deepest wound.The first person who taught her what it felt like to be “unworthy.”Ragnar strutted toward them in

    Alex’s head throbbed the moment the final report came in.His own governors had already drafted a full war plan against Prussia — timelines, strategies, objectives. They wanted the entire operation launched within a year.Then Samuel and Keaton appeared on the holo-channel, their faces tight with urgency.“Your Majesty,” Samuel said. “As you can see, the governors are planning a war with Prussia. The vote is at one hundred percent approval.”Alex stared at the three men, frustration burning behind his eyes.“Can you stop them? We don’t need another war.”Keaton shook his head slowly. “I might be able to stop my daughter. Maybe. But the rest? No. They’re moving on their own mandate.”Samuel added, “I can vote against it, but that’s only ten percent against ninety. The war will still go through.”Logan leaned forward, arms crossed. “You know where I stand. As a governor, I want this war. I want to return to my hometown — and this is the only way.”Alex sighed. He was the king, yes — but

    Josephine faced the reporters with steady, professional calm.“War means killing,” she said clearly. “We should not initiate another conflict without legitimate cause. The funds allocated for weapons should be used to feed the poor and advance technology for public welfare.”“See?” Lyra muttered. “She’s basically an angel. And I heard she still cries in secret sometimes. People say she still feels guilty about Alex’s death. She visits his tomb almost every month.”Lyra took a sip of her drink, lowering her voice. “Writing poetry, too. Stuff like—‘To be alive, and to know you are gone—This is the greatest torment.’You know that went viral?”“That damn man,” Sophia muttered. “Even dead, he still leaves people heartbroken.”“Oh damn Alex,” Lyra started again, wiping her eyes. “I seek you in the heavens, I seek you in the earth below; But nowhere in this vast world can your shadow be found.”Sophia sighed. “Your death has bound my life in frost,Yet still I call your name.”Then, as i
