    Six months had passed since that critical night in Zurich. A cool autumn had settled over a quiet private physiotherapy clinic on the outskirts of Geneva. Inside the rehabilitation room overlooking a garden where the maple leaves had turned crimson, Charlie stood with his weight supported by a pair of parallel bars.The white linen shirt he wore no longer hung loosely from his frame. Thanks to a strict diet, intensive pulmonary treatment, and relentless physical rehabilitation, the body that had once been frail and emaciated had gradually regained its strength and solid build."One more step, Mr. Vane. Hold your breath... now exhale slowly," instructed the local physiotherapist beside him.Charlie drew a long, steady breath. His lungs no longer felt as though they were being pierced by thousands of needles; oxygen now flowed through them with remarkable ease, carrying renewed energy into every part of his body that had once felt numb and lifeless. With one firm push of his foot, he st

    In a secluded private rehabilitation hospital on the outskirts of Zurich, Switzerland, far beyond the reach of Aethel Corp's intelligence network—which believed Charlie Vane had already been buried in a public cemetery in Havre.Charlie lay on a bed beside the window, staring blankly at the gray sky. An oxygen mask still covered his face, while the slow, steady beeping of the heart monitor echoed through the silent room. News that Elena had burned his letter and allowed his "death" to pass without shedding a single tear had reached him through a radio report.The door to the room opened. Ray walked in with firm, confident strides, no longer wearing the expression of despair he had carried at the harbor that day."Mr. Vane." Ray removed his coat and approached the bed. "Our plan worked. Havre Hospital has officially announced your death, and Madam Elena's assistant has confirmed it. As of today, in the eyes of the world—and in Madam Elena's eyes—Charlie Vane no longer exists."Charlie

    The lights of Galeries Lafayette gradually went dark as the clock struck two in the morning, leaving a cold silence stretching across the snow-covered streets of Paris. Inside the limousine gliding through the night toward her private mansion on the outskirts of the city, Elena leaned back against her seat. Her silver evening gown still clung elegantly to her body, yet the warmth of the celebration honoring her success had already evaporated without a trace.Resting on her lap, a tablet displayed the soaring sales graph of Aura Herbal, which had surged dramatically within hours of its official launch. This was the pinnacle of success she had dreamed of ever since the night she had been cast out of the Vane residence five years ago. She had won. She had built an empire from the ruins of her shattered life.Yet every time her eyes caught her reflection in the limousine's darkened window, Charlie's bloodstained handwritten words on the back of that newspaper clipping resurfaced in her mi

Her smile was graceful, her voice calm, and every handshake she offered sealed partnerships worth millions of euros for Aethel Corp's future."An extraordinary achievement, Madam Elena," said one of France's leading beauty critics, raising his champagne glass. "You have successfully brought the essence of Asia to the heart of Europe without a single flaw.""Thank you, sir. Thi

    Winter had completely locked Paris in its icy grip. The city's streets were blanketed in pristine white snow that reflected the shimmering glow of the city lights, a stark contrast to the warmth inside Aethel Corp's newly established European headquarters. On the luxurious top floor, Elena stood before a massive glass wall, gazing at the Eiffel Tower, its silhouette barely visible through the snowy mist.On her desk lay the silver pendant, now seamlessly repaired with white gold, resting in complete silence. Beside it sat an official document from Capital Law Firm, declaring that Leo's legal guardianship was now one hundred percent under her authority, with no room for legal disputes from anyone anywhere in the world.Aria stepped inside with the utmost care, carrying a steaming cup of herbal tea. "Madam, every preparation for tomorrow night's grand launch of Aura Herbal at Galeries Lafayette has been completed. Celebrities and the French Minister of Trade have all confirmed their att
