Chapter 19 - Sarah Begins Her Reign As Corporate Executive
For the rest of the week, Sarah immersed herself in executive meetings, signing new partnership contracts and auditing accounts.
Her life had transformed from a cage of emotional abuse into an empire of limitless professional opportunity.
On Friday evening, she stood on the private balcony of her Manhattan penthouse, looking out over the glittering city skyline.
The Empire State Building glowed in the winter night, mirroring the bright lights of success reflecting in her dark eyes.
Her assistant stepped out onto the balcony holding a silver tray with a sealed black envelope stamped in crimson wax.
“This was hand-delivered to the front reception desk by an express courier about ten minutes ago, Ms. Harrison,” the assistant reported.
Sarah frowned slightly, taking the heavy black envelope from the silver tray with a cautious hand.
“Did the receptionist see who dropped off the courier package?” Sarah asked, turning the dark envelope over in her fingers.
“No, ma-am; the courier left immediately after getting the signature confirmation,” the assistant replied politely.

Sarah dismissed her assistant with a gentle nod, standing alone under the moonlight as she broke the crimson wax seal.
