No.1
Scarlet grasped her hand. "You're brilliant. If you meet the right person, don't wait too long to start a family."
"Thank you for the advice." Evelyn's smile remained flawless.
In her published article, Evelyn included a simplified finance explainer:
[Short selling means betting a stock will fall.]
[Borrow shares to sell now, repurchase later at lower prices.]
[Extremely high risk—not recommended for amateurs.]
This accessible yet insightful piece sparked another wave of discussions:

["Please do a live breakdown!"]
["You made corporate warfare read like a thriller!"]
["Who knew finance could be this exciting?"]
Melissa Lee spent the entire night fuming.
Her only consolation? Alexander Kingsley's exclusive interview still carried no byline.
But the moment this thought crossed her mind—
Alexander Kingsley himself walked into Horizon Media's headquarters.
No.3
The Kingsley Group and Horizon Media had been entangled in a bitter feud for two decades.
The Kingsleys and the Yearwoods were once close family friends.
Years ago, the Kingsleys had helped Horizon Media soar to success, only to withdraw their investment and distance themselves for undisclosed reasons.
Later, Alexander Kingsley struck a devastating blow against Horizon, nearly toppling the century-old company.
Now, Horizon's feelings toward the Kingsley Group were indescribably complex.
There was gratitude—old favors best left unmentioned.
And there was hatred—blood debts impossible to repay.
No.4
Alexander's sudden visit put Horizon on high alert.
No one knew his true intentions.
Was this a casual inspection, or had he come to claim his prize?
Horizon Media had long been the juicy cut of meat he eyed for his plate.
Alexander arrived with only Nathan Carter and Ethan Miller in tow—an unusually small entourage for him.
His security team followed at a discreet distance.
William Yearwood personally greeted him, making sure Julian Ashford was kept away.
No.5
Their last violent confrontation at the birthday banquet had sent the old patriarch to the hospital.
Who knew if this demon had come to pick another fight today?
William even ordered Melissa Lee to let Evelyn Sinclair leave early.
That girl was nothing but bad luck.
The only survivor of the wiped-out Sinclair family.
Her cursed existence had killed her own parents.
To William, she was a walking omen of doom.
No.6
Her time with the Kingsleys had thrown them into chaos.
Her arrival at Horizon nearly destroyed the company.
If not for lingering fear of the Sinclairs' influence, he would have...
...
But Julian defied his father's orders.
While the entire company trembled, the crown prince strutted boldly into Alexander's presence.
Fortunately, Alexander ignored him completely—the young master wasn't his target today.
No.7
Nathan produced a newspaper clipping. "Lord Alex has reviewed Horizon's exclusive interview with him."
William's stomach tightened as he forced a smile. "What does Lord Alex think? Any feedback?"
The article had been published days ago. Alexander's delayed reaction was ominous.
Alexander remained silent.
Nathan spoke for him. "Could we meet the journalist who wrote this? Lord Alex has some questions."
The byline belonged to Penelope Pope.
