It wasn't until Rolf was about to leave that he learned the tech company was called ZeitTech.
The CEO of this company had insulted Skyla.
Rolf saw Skyla as a top tech talent, but the ZeitTech CEO treated her like she was nothing. Back then, he had outright refused to cooperate with ZeitTech.
Rolf didn't want to come.
But his father said that behind ZeitTech was Draven from Storm Group, so he had to go.
ZeitTech's core strength was LugiX, a technology that had every other company trying to steal its talent.
Still, Rolf came.
The company's owner was Halle, whom he had met briefly at a charity gala. Aside from being a bit miffed about the Skyla incident, there was nothing between them.
But Rolf never expected Halle and Ayla to know each other.
Now it all made sense.
Halle's random trouble with Skyla was just because Ayla was jealous and meddling, using Halle to bully Skyla.
Rolf wasn't just upset anymore—he was openly hostile.
Halle frowned. She was worth billions and could carry herself with confidence, but only around people she saw as beneath her.
In her world, moving up meant dealing with peers—or those above her.
Halle had the money and the confidence, but she knew her limits.
Rolf knew Troy, so Halle instinctively wanted to push him away.
But he was still Conrad's son.
Halle was willing to give Rolf a few minutes.
"I am," she said, stepping aside. "Let's talk."
Halle sat down next to Ayla.
Rolf sat across from them, and his assistant followed in.
"Do you know each other?" Rolf's eyes flicked between them.
"Yes." Ayla had kept it a secret before, afraid Troy would misunderstand that she was jealous of Skyla and had Halle cause trouble for her as revenge.
Now, with Draven backing her, who cared about Troy anymore?
Rolf was polite to Halle because of her status.
But who was Ayla? He had never taken her seriously. "You don't have a place to speak here, do you?"

Why is half of each of these chapters missing? The story sort of trails off in the middle of the chapter. That’s unfortunate....
