The nurse entered Room 606 carrying a bouquet of flowers. "Ms. Quill, these flowers were sent by a gentleman," she announced.
Assuming it was Kevin who had sent them, Esther said casually, "Just leave them there. Thank you."
"No problem," the nurse replied, placing the flowers and heading back to the nurse station. Seizing the moment when no one was in sight, she opened the box and discovered a gold necklace nestled inside.
Her eyes widened in surprise as she covered her mouth. The dazzling necklace held an unexpected allure, and she couldn't resist trying it on. The realization that she had received such a precious gift merely for delivering flowers felt like an extraordinary stroke of luck, almost too good to be true.
Little did the nurse know that human greed could surface in an instant, and desires could intensify with greed.

At Capitus International Airport.
Bradley approached the arrivals area, where a well-dressed man respectfully greeted him.
"Hello, Mr. Warner. I'm Dylan Searle, your special assistant."
"Dylan, take me to the company now."
"Alright."
During Bradley's tenure as the CEO of the Warner Group, he spent most of his time away from Capitus. However, many were unaware that he remained a formidable CEO even without the Warner Group.
As the elevator ascended, Bradley enjoyed the breathtaking city view. Upon reaching the office, the department heads were already present, prepared to report their work.
The atmosphere in the entire building became intensely focused.
Despite his recent return from abroad and the need to adjust to the time difference, Bradley delved into work until 11:00 p.m.
After concluding all the meetings, he left the company.
Bradley's infrequent visits to Capitus in the past contrasted with his decision to establish Esther Corp. there this time, driven by a specific vision.
