THEN WE WILL COME
"Why are all the lights on… Dad?" Christian muttered softly as he stepped inside the house, his brows knitting slightly in confusion as his gaze moved across the living room that was far brighter than usual.The warm glow of multiple lights replacing the quiet dimness he had grown accustomed to returning to after long days, and for a brief moment, he simply stood there, unsure whether he had walked into the right place or not.Before he could think further...."Welcome home, Chris." Adrian’s voice came from ahead, calm yet carrying a warmth that immediately reached him, and as Christian lifted his gaze, he finally noticed them.Lysandre stood slightly to the side, composed as always, his posture straight yet relaxed, while Riven leaned casually against the wall with his usual sharp gaze, and Elara stood near the table, her expression soft but observant, and in the center of it all…Adrian.There was a small arrangement on the table, not grand or extravagant, but enough to make it cl
YOU WILL
"Uncle… aren't you supposed to be busy right now?"Christian asked in a soft voice breaking the silence filled around him.He stood near the large glass window of his office, watching the city lights from there became a favourite hobby to him, only watching the city lights stretching endlessly before him could make him take any kind of important decisions related to his life.The three amulet fragments lying in his palm, their faint glow reflecting softly against his fingers as if reminding him of something far beyond the walls of this building.Edward has stepped a minute ago into the Christian's cabin.After being informed that Christian was still here even at this late hour made him to walk straight to Christian's cabin.As soon as he entered, his eyes fixed on the Christian standing there quietly and for a brief moment, he simply observed him in silence.But the question of Christian made him to answer, "I might be busy to anyone but not to you, Chris."Christian was silent, and E
TOO LATE, BOSS
"Why does it feel like you called all of us here for something serious instead of work, Chris?" Tanya raised an eyebrow with a curious look on her face, her voice broke the quiet atmosphere of the office as she leaned slightly against the table.Her eyes narrowing just a little as she observed Christian standing near the glass wall, his back turned toward them, his posture calm yet carrying a weight that was not difficult to notice."By the you're looking kinda new to me Chris," Kira said with a bright smile, "the suit looks stylish and expensive, you're looking like a movie star today!" Christian was still silent, Luna understood why he called everyone to here all of a sudden.The room itself reflected his new position, larger, more refined, and undeniably belonging to someone at the top, yet despite that, the air inside did not feel distant or intimidating, because the people present were not subordinates standing before a CEO, they were something far more personal than that.Kira
WHY WOULD SHE?
"After everything that has happened today, I believe there is no longer any reason to delay the final decision regarding the leadership of this company."One of the senior-most directors who is very loyal to Lord Sargent has said, his voice very calm yet noticeably restrained, as he looked around the boardroom where the empty chairs of those who had just fallen served as silent reminders of the shift in power that had taken place only moments ago.The atmosphere inside the room had completely changed.Not because the structure of the room itself had altered, but because the authority that once filled it had been dismantled piece by piece, leaving behind only those who either chose integrity or were wise enough to remain silent when it mattered most.Christian leaned back in his chair, his posture relaxed yet composed, as if the storm he had just unleashed had not disturbed him in the slightest, though beneath that calm exterior, his thoughts were far from still, moving quietly through
I WANT ACCOUNTABILITY
"Shall we begin the meeting, or are you all waiting for someone else to save you?"Christian broke the deadly silence the moment he stepped into the boardroom.His tone calm yet carrying a quiet authority that immediately drew every gaze toward him, because today’s meeting was not an ordinary one, it was the CEO selection meeting, and the presence inside the room alone was enough to make the atmosphere suffocating.For today Christian has been working hard for months to prove himself and his worth to be selected as the Ceo.At the far end of the table sat Lord Sargent with a straight posture and unreadable expression, the mere weight of his presence alone was enough to silence even the most arrogant among the directors, while beside him sat Edward, his gaze sharp and observant as always, watching everything with a quiet intensity that revealed he was not here as a passive participant.The remaining directors were already seated, some composed, some restless, and some trying to maintai
HE'S MOVING TOO FAST
"It’s worse than serious," Christian glanced at the file again as he replied quietly. "We cannot waste time anymore..." A soft pause followed, and Kira said in a professional tone, "don't worry, I’ll handle it, and you'll get everything by evening." Christian ended the call without further words since it's unnecessary at that moment.Immediately, he dialed another number.This time to Tanya.She picked up after a few seconds."Well, this is rare," she smiled lightly. "Calling me without warning? What's gotten into you Chris? Did you miss me?" "I need access logs," Christian said directly without any kind of greeting or formal beginning.Her tone changed instantly after hearing to him, "Umm... What kind of access are you talking about?"'"Internal system access over the last six months," he replied. "Focus on irregular entries, especially those linked to restricted data..." Tanya let out a soft whistle as she said, "Well, that's not small or something easy Chris." "I know," Christ
