Hannah sat in the living room, listening to the heated argument coming from the study upstairs. It were Ramona and Orion.
Ever since ?

The months spent working in the real world had truly helped her grow up.
She now realized how foolish she had been in the past, thinking that she was the supreme heiress. Hannah had realized she had grown up pampered, surrounded by luxury, and assumed that everyone should bow to her.
She had naively tried to clash with others, like a simpleton, repeatedly losing to Seraphina’s schemes.
In the end, her own brother had kicked her out.
At first, she couldn’t adapt. She had thrown tantrums in front of the servants.
No one paid her any attention. She had no money, not even a penny, and there were countless people blocking her from going home.
It was the very moment where she realized if her family truly abandoned her, she would have nothing left.
So she put aside her arrogance and worked hard to prove herself.
Finally, she had come home. Hannah swore never to return to that life of relying on others or living to
serve.
Upstairs in the study, Orion stood with a grim expression, an aura of coldness surrounding him that seemed as if it could freeze the air.
“Was this you?” he asked in a low, furious voice.
Ramona sat in the dim light. His face was dark with displeasure, clearly not pleased with Orion’s accusation.
“Is that how you speak to your elder?”
Ramona’s voice was rough and laced with irritation.
“I had checked with the media platform. The current wave of public opinion is still being pushed under my name, but I never gave such an order. Don’t you think you should explain yourself?”
Ramona let out a cold laugh. His eyes gleamed with a cunning light.
“Explain? You run the company. If there was a problem with your employees, shouldn’t you be asking Ken
about it?”
Orion’s eyes burned with cold rage, his glare icy enough to freeze the room. He was clearly furious at Ramona’s refusal to take responsibility.

With a forceful kick, he sent a nearby antique vase crashing to the ground, shattering into pieces.
A vase worth hundreds of thousands of dollars disappeared instantly beneath his feet.

“Ken has worked with me for years, but he doesn’t have the guts to do this!” He shouted, his voice rising to
a roar.
His anger is almost consuming his rationality.
The vase was one of Ramona’s most beloved antiques. It was a pair. Now that one was destroyed, the other lost its value too.
Ramona’s pupils contracted in fury. His hands clenched the arms of his chair so tightly that the veins in his hands bulged.
“Didn’t you already investigate it? What are you asking me for?” Ramona snapped.
He was too frustrated to continue playing games with his grandson.
His good mood had been ruined.
Orion had been raised into power in the family, gradually pushing Ramona out of the picture.
He was no longer able to maintain control over his brightest grandson.
Now everyone knew that it was Orion who had the final say.
Did Orion really think he had become useless with age?
Ramoba was determined to show Orion that with just a flick of his finger, he could still control everything.
The dim yellow light bathed the study, making it feel colder than ever.
Broken glass littered the floor, and tension permeated the air.
Orion stood there, his back to the light, sinking deeper into the shadows.
His stern face was half–lit, half–drenched in darkness. His gazes, sharp like blades, struggled to contain the icy rage that burned within them.
He regretted growing soft and not taking all of Ramona’s power back when he had the chance.
“Do you even know what you’re doing?”
His voice was gruff, hoarse, and filled with anger as he glared at Ramona.
Ramona met his gaze, mocking him with a sarcastic smile.
He was mocking Orion for being soft on him. Orion was too green.
“Do you think you can deal with Wilson with such methods? All I did was add a little more fuel to the fire, making sure it burned more completely.”
Had it not been for Orion making the first move, Ramona would never have found this opportunity.

Ramona gave him a dismissive glance.

“Aren’t you the one who hates him? Hates that he saved Seraphina; hates that he’s close to the Crosses. Your idea isn’t wrong. With public opinion on your side, you can get rid of him and walk away without a scratch. And with this, the Crosses won’t want anything to do with the notorious Wilson. You’ll have your chance, won’t you?”
