Under the Veil I Rule novel Chapter 79

Just then, Amara suddenly remembered what Liliana had said during her interview the previous day. Her eyes darted around as she whispered, "Dad, honestly, Elowen's a good person; she's just a bit immature. I mean, I'm only a few months younger than her, so maybe it's not my place to say, but she really doesn't act her age. None of my friends would pull a stunt like that."

Larry's expression darkened even more at her words.

He stood up from his chair, clasped his hands behind his back, and paced by the window a few times. After a moment, he stopped, his face stern. "If she's that immature, she probably can't handle running the company."

"Exactly," Amara replied nonchalantly. "The Sullivan Group is your life's work. It needs proper management, not someone running it on a whim."

Larry said nothing, maintaining his solemn expression for a few more seconds before speaking. "We'll decide on the shares later. There are some family matters to discuss too. You should head back."

"Alright, I'll go for now. Don't let it upset you too much, Dad. I'll have a chat with Elowen."

After saying that, Amara left the chairman's office. Her face was mostly hidden behind a mask, showing little emotion, but a smirk was playing at the corners of her lips.

For now, it seemed she wouldn't be getting the majority of the Sullivan Group's shares, but at least Elowen wouldn't either. The outcome was still up in the air.

Later that evening, Amara returned to the film set.

The upcoming scene was crucial; it was a pivotal moment between Liliana and Lucian, marking a small but significant twist in the plot.

Amara positioned herself nearby with her notebook, ready to observe and take notes. However, as shooting began, Lucian was the one who stumbled.
