The End
Meanwhile, at the Gibson mansion, the atmosphere was completely different.August sat in the living room, his fingers tapping lightly against his knee as he waited. For someone who had just handled multiple crises and stood firm in front of the board, he now looked… nervous.Very nervous.He let out a small breath and ran a hand through his hair.At that moment, Damien walked into the room, holding a small velvet box carefully in his hand.“Young master,” Damien said respectfully, stepping closer, “I have brought the ring.”August immediately straightened.“The ring?” he repeated.“Yes,” Damien replied, opening the box slowly.Inside it, a brilliant diamond ring sparkled under the light, shining so brightly that it almost reflected across the entire room.“It is the most expensive ring in the world,” Damien added calmly.August leaned forward and looked at it. For a moment, he said nothing.Then a nervous grin slowly appeared on his face. “Tina is going to love this,” he said quietly.
Few Minutes Later
A few minutes later, a flashy black car drove slowly through the gates of the Doe’s mansion and came to a stop in front of the house. The engine went silent, and the door opened.Mia stepped out of the car, her heels clicking softly against the tiled ground as she walked toward the door. Her face was calm, almost too calm, as if she had already planned everything in her mind.She raised her hand and knocked. A few seconds later, the door opened.It was Tina.The moment their eyes met, the atmosphere changed immediately.Tina did not smile.In fact, her expression turned cold almost instantly.After what happened at the restaurant, where Mia had publicly accused her of stealing her husband, there was no warmth left between them.Not anymore.“What do you want?” Tina asked bluntly, her tone direct and unfriendly.Mia paused for a second. Then, suddenly, her expression changed.Her eyes softened, and her face turned regretful.“Are you not even going to let me come in?” she asked in a low
Mia Wants Tina Dead
After the board meeting ended, the atmosphere outside the building had already changed completely. The news of how August had managed to solve eight devastating crises within one week and turn massive losses into profit had spread like wildfire across the city. Every major news outlet picked it up immediately.All the headlines that had once questioned him, mocked him, and asked whether he was fit to lead the Gibson conglomerate were suddenly gone. It was as if they had never existed.In their place were bold new headlines filled with praise.“August Gibson Shocks the Business World!”“Heir Turns Billions in Losses into Profit in Just One Week!”“Is August Even Better Than His Grandfather?: Watch how the young heir makes history in the business world.”By the time August stepped out of the building with Damien beside him, a large crowd of reporters had already gathered at the entrance.The moment they saw him, they rushed forward.“Mr. Gibson!” one of them called out loudly. “Over he
Alexander Is Thrown Out Of The Board Meeting
Alexander’s face burned with frustration as he struggled to remain seated in his seat, his chest rising and falling heavily. The calm confidence he had walked into the room with was gone, replaced by anger and disbelief.August watched him quietly for a moment, then a faint grin appeared on his face.“What is the matter, Uncle?” August asked calmly, his tone almost playful but nothing less taunting. “Even after finding out you created all this crisis, I did not get as frustrated as you are right now.”The room went silent again.Alexander’s eyes snapped toward him, filled with rage.“You were the one bragging earlier,” August continued, leaning back slightly in his chair. “You said you could not wait for this moment to come. You said there was nothing I could do within one week.”He paused briefly, letting the words sink in.“Now that you have seen what I am capable of,” he added, his voice steady, “why don’t you praise me instead of getting angry?”A few of the board members lowered
The Manager's Testimonies
Donald stepped forward with a calm expression, but his voice carried weight as he began his report.“Esteemed board members,” he said respectfully, “our company was facing a major crisis before the young master intervened.”The men in the room leaned forward slightly, ready to listen.“For months, we had been producing drugs and storing them in our warehouses,” Donald continued. “The warehouses were filled to the brim with finished products ready for distribution.”He paused briefly, then his tone became heavier.“But before we could supply those drugs to the market, a group of thugs attacked our facilities,” he said. “They set fire to the warehouses and burned everything to the ground.”A murmur spread across the room.“Drugs worth four billion dollars were destroyed in that attack,” he added.Several board members frowned deeply.“That meant we had nothing left to supply to our customers,” Donald continued. “And if that situation had continued, we would not only have lost money, we
Verdict Day
Six days later, inside one of the Gibson conglomerate’s largest headquarters, the board members were already seated in a luxurious boardroom. The long polished table reflected the bright lights above, and the air inside the room carried a heavy sense of expectation.At one end of the table, Alexander sat comfortably with a confident look on his face. His posture was relaxed, and his fingers tapped lightly against the arm of his chair. He had the face of a man who had already won.Alexander looked around at the board members and gave a faint smile.“You should not worry yourselves,” he said calmly. “I know that foolish nephew of mine could not have fixed anything within the one week you gave him.”Some of the men exchanged glances, while others leaned forward slightly, clearly interested in what he had to say.Alexander continued, his tone filled with certainty.“So you can already consider this matter settled,” he added. “By the end of today, I will officially take over as the new hei
