His numbers were rock solid-under his leadership, a severely underperformingpany had made an impressive turnaround.
Slide after slide, the dataid out a clear trajectory. Growth. Recovery. Profit.
And Donald himself was poised and articte. Even Tessa found herself ncing at him more than once.
This Donald... when he''s serious, he actually looks like he knows what he''s doing. When he finished, the room erupted into enthusiastic apuse.
"Well, that''s it for me," Donald said, stepping aside with a rxed smile. "Next, I''d like to invite Mr. Yardley to present."
He was saving Tessa forst-because he, too, was eager to see her shine.
Yardley nodded at Liam to start the slideshow.
Liam had done all the prep work-Yardley hadn''t even looked at the report ahead of time.
Normally, it was just a formality. But now? It showed.
The moment Yardley began to speak, it became clear that his spoken figures didn''t match the slides behind him.
Still, he pressed on, pretending nothing was wrong.
From beside her, Donald leaned in to whisper to Tessa, "Are you sure you''re really this guy''s daughter?"
"I mean no offense. I''m just amazed. How does someone that unimpressive end up with a daughter like you?"
Even Donald had to admit it-Tessa''s talent was undeniable.
Yardley struggled through the rest of the presentation, ignoring the murmurs rippling through the room.
His face was tight, his aura frayed.
"Was I really that bad just now?" he asked L under his breath.
L frowned. "What were you doingst night? You didn''t even memorize the key data."
He hadn''te home at all.
"Don''t bother me about that. I''ve still got the votes. That''s all that matters." His fingers scratched at the table, leaving faint w marks as he tried to mask his nerves with bluster.
Tessa was the real threat. As long as she withdrew, everything would be fine.

"And now," Donald announced, "Miss Tessa, please take the floor."

The room fell quiet in anticipation-not just Donald, but every shareholder was watching her closely.
As Tessa rose and made her way to the front, Yardley''s aura suddenly shifted, ring with disorder and a sharp, almost savage undercurrent.
He wasn''t worried about her skills. He had the old man in his hands. And he knew exactly what mattered
most to Tessa.
She wouldn''t dare go too far... right?
Tessa stepped onto the stage with perfect calm.
She connected her presentation herself and began.
No flowery words. No excessive ir.
Just data-clean, powerful, and undeniable.

Oneparison after another, each more striking than thest. Every slide felt like the scent of prey-sharply catching the attention of every werewolf in the room, triggering their innate hunger for profit and growth.
"And that concludes my report," Tessa said clearly. "I believe everyone here is a rational investor. You''ve put your money into Sinir Corp because you want to see a return-and I, Tessa, can make sure you get exactly that."
Each wordnded with weight, firm and unwavering.
Her confidence wasn''t showy-it radiated from her without effort, like gravity.
She didn''t strike poses. She didn''t have to.
Yet standing there, she shone brighter than anyone in the room.
The shareholders'' eyes

Yardley''s expression darkened.
When I spoke, all I got were doubts. But her-just a few words, and they''re already ready to follow her.
Donald was the first to p.
"To be honest," he said, standing up, "you all know me-I don''t usually admire
anyone. But today, Tessa? You have my respect."
There was no ego in his tone, only sincerity.
That brief, clean presentation had shown everyone the truth of Tessa''s capabilities.
She wasn''t just good. She was exactly what Sinir Corp needed to move forward.

"As for the role of executive president," Donald added with a grin, "I''m officially withdrawing. And I''d say doing so gracefully is its own kind of victory."
