Chapter 4 - Miss Vale Steps Forward To Claim Her Inheritance

Miss Vale stepped away from the floor-to-ceiling windows, her burgundy tailored power suit rustling softly.
She walked with the posture of a seasoned CEO who had endured years of corporate warfare and survived.

“Instead, your father recognized your incompetence long before you ever realized you were being watched,” she added.
