Reborn From Oblivion

Under Nathalie's ambitious expansion, Stewart Enterprise had become the unrivaled titan of the Capital's vast business landscape. The brains behind this empire were whispered to be the genius mathematician Lincoln, though some insisted it was the ruthless and formidable businesswoman, Vivian. Yet, away from public eyes, it was known that Lincoln spoiled his daughter Vivian endlessly. Time, as it does, flew by quickly.noveldrama

Three years later, the Capital buzzed with the news of the genius hacker Morris's release from prison, disrupting the tranquility that had settled over the years.

"That hacker's scarier than even Vivian from the Stewart family. He's like the Grim Reaper. If he wants someone gone by midnight, who'd dare stick around till dawn?"

"He could turn a king into a pauper in a heartbeat. The four great families of the past? They all fell because of him. Now, their stories are just legends."

"I'd say Vivian merely capitalized on his destruction. If he hadn't toppled the four families, how else could she have ousted the Dawson family and even her own family's primary branch so easily?"

At that moment, Vivian, known for her fierce reputation, was battling a headache, lounging in a comfy chair as Lizzy massaged her temples.

"Sis, ever since Cameron disappeared from the Capital, your headaches have been gone. What's bothering you today?"

With her eyes closed, Vivian's brow furrowed deeply. "Cameron was just a minor nuisance. I just had to shove him out of my life. But the guy from prison, he's the real headache. He's about to get out, and I haven't a clue what to do."

"Sis, why not share your worries with us? Let's help lighten your load."

Vivian pondered, "Should I go see him?"

"That depends. Do you want to?"

Vivian blurted, "Of course, I do."

"Then go see him."

Vivian hesitated, "But I feel like I don't measure up."

"Sis, you're the brightest star in the Capital. If you don't measure up, who does?"

Vivian sighed. You don't get it. This isn't like business. In business, power and money suffice. But this is about feelings. I'm not the person he most wants to see... maybe not even the second. I don't even know where I stand with him."

Vivian cast a wistful glance towards the primary branch's quarters. In her heart, Ashley and Morris were destined for each other, and she believed Morris's true love was Ashley. After three years in prison, of course, he'd want to see his beloved first. '

Lizzy, noticing Vivian's troubled expression, said, "Sis, who cares who he wants to see? If you want to see him, then go for it. Didn't you always say you live life your way, never letting others' opinions dictate your actions?"

Indeed, in recent years, Vivian had lived with a carefree spirit, always considering her own feelings first.

Vivian thought for a moment and said, "You're right. If I want to meet him, I will."

The day Morris was released, the prison entrance was a hive of activity. Benjamin and Gavin, along with Frankie, Theo, and Jaime, and even Dean and Ashley from the Stewart's primary branch, were all there. Beyond the remnants of the once-great families, the new power players in town were eager to catch a glimpse of the genius. With a little luck, they might even convince him to join their ranks.
