The television remained on, broadcasting the evening news.
When the anchor mentioned The Hayes Corporation, Helena's eyelids fluttered.
She sat up slightly, watching the screen in silence.
Sebastian's tall, refined figure appeared on the broadcast.
He was completely surrounded by reporters.
It was a live press conference at The Hayes Corporation.
Sebastian looked incredibly calm, acting as though the raging corporate storm had absolutely nothing to do with him.
He sat down with effortless grace.
He stared quietly at the sea of flashing cameras and delivered his statement with sharp precision.
"The failure of our partnership with IGM has caused a catastrophic drop in our stock value. I bear full responsibility."
"I will resign as CEO of The Hayes Corporation, effective immediately, to set a precedent for accountability."
His statement was concise. An apology, a resignation—zero hesitation.
Helena knew this was the smartest way to stop the bleeding for the Hayes family.
But she hadn't expected him to be so brutally decisive.
He didn't even put up a fight. It caught her off guard, making her feel as though things were suddenly spiraling out of her control.
She couldn't explain it, but a primal instinct flared to life.
She knew Sebastian was planning something massive.
She just couldn't figure out what it was.
Given the circumstances, she simply watched the screen, betraying no outward reaction.
Suddenly, her secretary knocked frantically and practically bolted into the office.
Helena frowned at her. "What's wrong? Why the rush?"
"Ms. Wallace, the police are waiting for you outside. They're officers from Riverton," the secretary blurted out, visibly stunned.
Helena didn't bat an eyelash.
