    **Through Unseen Doors We Step Into Untold Worlds Beyond**


    by Sage Hunter Lane


    The disappointment etched into Richard’s features was like a weight pressing down on rk’s chest, making it hard to breathe. “Grandpa,” he began, his voice trembling slightly, “I couldn’t help myself for just a moment… I know I messed up.”


    Richard’s anger simmered, his brow furrowing deeper. “If you can’t resist the smallest of temptations, how on earth will you manage therger ones that life will throw at you? I simply cannot ce my trust in you when ites to the Sumner Group. You should consider resigning.”


    rk felt a wave of disbelief wash over him, his heart racing at the thought of losing everything he had worked so hard for.


    Just as he opened his mouth to defend himself, Cindy’s voice burst forth,ced with indignation. “Dad, don’t you think you’re being overly harsh on rk? He only strayed because N can’t give him children. Do you truly expect him to spend his entire life with a woman who cannot bear him a child?”


    N let out a cold, mockingugh, her eyes narrowing as she regarded Cindy. It was astonishing how Cindy seemed to be grasping at straws, trying to shift the me for rk’s infidelity onto N. As if his inability to control his desires was somehow a reflection of her shorings.


    “Isn’t that utterly ridiculous?” N shot back, her tone sharp. “Before Jordyn got pregnant, did rk even have any inkling that would happen?”


    “What? That woman is pregnant?” Marie interjected, her voice rising with a mixture of frustration and disappointment. She turned her gaze to rk, her eyes shing with disbelief. “rk, how could you be so reckless?”


    The weight of the moment settled heavily in the air, and rk felt a chill run down his spine. The thought of their family name, the Sumner reputation, hanging by a thread was unbearable.


    With his head bowed, rk struggled to meet Marie’s prating gaze. He understood that she was hisst lifeline in this chaotic storm.


    “Grandma, I’m truly sorry. I know I was wrong. I swear it won’t happen again. I’ve dedicated so much time to the Sumner Group; I can’t bear the thought of leaving,” he pleaded, desperation creeping into his voice.


    N’s expression was a mask of disdain, her lips curling in a sneer. “rk, you really think you can have everything, don’t you?”


    “Enough!” Cindy snapped, her voice cutting through the tension like a knife. “If you had kept rk under control, he wouldn’t have strayed with that other woman. You share the me for this disaster!”


    N felt the urge to roll her eyes, but she recognized that Cindy was not the one holding the reins of this situation. Instead, she turned her attention back to Richard, her voice steady and calm. “Grandpa, now that everyone is aware of rk’s affair, I have no interest in continuing this marriage. I’m nning to file for divorce.”


    The room fell silent, every pair of eyes turning toward her, especially rk’s, whose face was a mix of anger and disbelief.


    Divorce? At such a critical juncture?!


    “No! I won’t allow you to divorce me!” rk blurted out, his voice rising in desperation.


    Richard’s gaze darkened, and he lowered his eyes, lost in thought. Despite being in his seventies, his authoritative presence stillmanded both respect and fear.


    N ignored rk’s outburst, her focus solely on Richard, waiting for his verdict.


    After what felt like an eternity of tense silence, Richard finally spoke, his voice heavy with the weight of his decision. “I understand your feelings, but you cannot divorce rk at this moment.”


    The reality was stark; the only evidence circting online were mere photographs, devoid of any substantial proof. If N proceeded with the divorce now, it would be tantamount to admitting that rk had indeed strayed.


    Though Richard felt a profound disappointment in rk’s actions, he couldn’t overlook the fact that he had personally mentored him for the family business. Abandoning him over a single mistake was not an option he was willing to entertain.


    His earlier harsh words were intended as a lesson, a stern reminder to ensure that rk would not repeat such behavior in the future.


    N’s hands balled into fists at her sides, her expression growing colder as she regarded Richard. She hadn’t anticipated that, even with Jordyn pregnant, the Sumners would still choose to side with rk.


    “And what if I insist on going through with the divorce?” she challenged, her voice steady butced with an undercurrent of defiance.Conclusion
