Chapter 201
Charlotte was rushed to the hospital.The doctors had run several tests.Barbara sat on one side of the room, her hands clasped tightly together in prayer. John paced slowly near the window, his brows furrowed in anxious thought. Logan stood at Charlotte’s side, his fingers interlaced with hers, trying to hide his own fears beneath a mask of strength.For days, Charlotte had been unwell, and the family’s anxiety had only grown heavier. When the doctors finally reentered the room, their faces softened with relief. One of them cleared his throat before speaking gently.“Mr. Brooks, Mrs. Brooks,” the doctor said with a calm smile, “after conducting a series of tests, we can confirm that Charlotte is pregnant.”The words seemed to echo in the air. For a second, silence consumed the room as though everyone was trying to process what had just been said. Then Logan’s face broke into a wide, almost boyish grin. He clasped Charlotte’s hand tighter, his eyes sparkling.“Pregnant?” he repeat

Charlotte pulled back slightly, her eyes sparkling with excitement. “I have to show my parents immediately!” Without waiting for a response, she dashed toward the house, Logan following calmly behind her, carrying the neatly wrapped package. Her excitement was infectious; she could hardly contain herself.As she reached the front door, Charlotte fumbled with the keys for a moment, finally stepping inside and calling out, “Mom! Dad! You have to come see what Logan bought for me!”Barbara and John appeared almost immediately, curiosity written all over their faces. They were not expecting such urgency, nor could they guess the magnitude of the gift awaiting them. Charlotte beamed, holding the box up as if it were a treasure chest.Barbara’s eyes widened the instant she saw the gift. “Charlotte, what is this?” she asked, stepping closer. Her hands hovered over the package, hesitant to touch it until she knew more.Charlotte’s excitement bubbled over. “It’s from Logan! He got it for

The announcement hit Harry like a physical blow. As the emcee’s words rang out, stating that Portal Construction was banned from all future conferences and would never again be permitted to participate, Harry’s face turned a sickly shade of pale. His earlier shock had been intense, but this new development plunged him into an even deeper pit of frustration and shame. The humiliation he felt this time was unlike anything he had experienced before—far worse than the initial sting of being overlooked.All eyes in the hall seemed to shift toward him. Attendees, judges, and colleagues, some of whom had previously been deferential or mildly envious, now watched with a mixture of judgment and curiosity. The smugness he had carried so confidently just hours ago had evaporated entirely, leaving only embarrassment and the realization of how publicly he had overestimated himself. His chest tightened as every stare dug into him, a physical manifestation of the shame consuming him.Harry lower

The hall erupted in applause, a wave of excitement and admiration rolling over Charlotte as she reached the podium. Every head turned toward her, some faces glowing with genuine delight, others caught in stunned admiration. The recognition of Elysian Bloom’s achievement was unmistakable, and Charlotte felt a rush of warmth mixed with pride as she accepted the congratulations extended by colleagues, competitors, and attendees alike.Amid the clapping and cheering, Charlotte noticed Logan standing from his seat across the room. The crowd parted slightly as he made his way toward her, each step measured and confident. Logan’s presence carried an authority that commanded attention without demanding it. When he reached Charlotte, he extended his hand first, then embraced her warmly in a congratulatory hug. The gesture was public, deliberate, and yet it held genuine sincerity—a rare combination that drew the eyes of the entire hall.“Congratulations, Charlotte,” Logan said, his voice c

Harry leaned back slightly in his chair, a smug smile tugging at the corners of his mouth as he addressed those seated in front of him and around the table. His voice carried with deliberate clarity, loud enough to be heard by nearby attendees, though not so loud as to disturb the formal air of the conference hall.“You know,” he began, raising a hand in a sweeping gesture, “I have connections with the convener of this conference. And I’m certain that my company will win the speech and presentations tonight. We’ll emerge as the winner, mark my words.”He paused briefly, allowing the statement to settle, letting the weight of his assumed superiority hang in the air. Some guests nodded subtly, a mixture of respect and envy flickering across their faces. Others kept polite smiles, concealing the irritation or disbelief he seemed to provoke.“If anyone here wants a favor after this conference,” Harry continued, leaning forward slightly and lowering his voice as if sharing a secret of u
Chapter 196
Upon receiving Logan’s instructions, the convener of the conference felt the weight of responsibility settle immediately on his shoulders. He had long understood Logan’s influence—how it permeated corridors of power and extended into the networks of business that most could only dream of accessing. Logan was not just another powerful figure; he was the invisible hand that could shape outcomes with quiet precision, and the convener knew that any misstep could have repercussions far beyond the present evening.He read Logan’s message carefully, noting the exact wording: Harry’s Company was not to be allowed into the circle, his position at the top of the conference results was to be denied, and in fact, the company should be placed at the very bottom of the rankings. The convener’s brow furrowed, aware that fulfilling these instructions would mean overriding the usual protocols of scoring and judgment, perhaps even raising murmurs among the judges and organizers. Yet he also underst
