She Left She Thrived She’s Worth Billions novel Chapter 370

Preston didn't come alone.

Following behind him was Gabriel.

The guests Nathaniel invited all recognized Gabriel—the well-known Vice President of Stellaris PharmaTech.

As for Preston, while most didn’t know him, his overwhelmingly powerful presence and impossibly handsome face made him hard to ignore.
