Alden was even more confused. He even forgot himself and grabbed Albert’s arm, desperate for answers.
Kareem’s cold expression hardened as he yanked Albert away from Alden with a harsh scoff. “If you cannot even remember, then maybe your feelings for Helena were never as real as you claimed p>

In just two days, the company found itself drowning in a tidal wave of damaging gossip and scandals.
Alden, once admired as a careful underdog quietly waiting for his moment, was now painted as a ruthless executive willing to cross any line to succeed.
