Over the next forty-eight hours, disaster spread everywhere.
Business partners suddenly withdrew.
Investors disappeared.
Confidential documents leaked online.
News headlines exploded.
"The Harrison Empire Faces Unexpected Collapse."
Richard sat in his office surrounded by chaos.
Then his assistant rushed inside.
"Sir, we found who orchestrated everything."
Richard already knew.
Sophia.
But what he discovered next shocked him even more.
Sophia wasn't acting alone.
She had secretly been working with Richard's own younger brother, Daniel.

Destroy the empire from within.

Richard stared at those three words.
Suddenly, his priorities became crystal clear.

Within hours, Sophia's entire plan began to collapse.
But she still had one final move left.
