?Chapter 746:


    Amid the swirling controversy,izenstched onto one particr moment—Roselyn shamelessly demanding five million from Leah. The absurdity of it turned into an overnight meme, endlessly reyed and ridiculed.


    Watching the drama unfold on her screen, Corrine leaned back in her chair, a smirk ghosting her lips.


    Just then, a knock sounded on her office door.


    “Come in!”


    The door swung open, and Natasha stepped inside, guiding Emily and Luna into the room.


    The moment their gazesnded on Corrine, their eyes widened in disbelief.


    “Please, have a seat.” Corrine gestured toward the chairs opposite her. Emily and Luna exchanged a wary nce before lowering themselves into their seats, tension threading the air between them.


    Noting their hesitation, Corrine leaned back, her voice smooth yet inviting. “If you have questions, ask. I won’t bite.”


    Luna was the first to speak. “Since you’re the head of Ford Group, why not just acquire Burgess Group?”


    Miss Hond—the newly appointed head—had swiftly tackled internal issues, earning a reputation for innovation and making thepany a force to be reckoned with.


    Yet, despite the growing buzz around her, most people knew little beyond her surname and gender.


    Luna never would have imagined that this elusive, powerful figure was none other than Corrine—the very woman Leah relentlessly sought to destroy.


    Corrine’s response was cool and precise. “The Burgess Group isn’t what it used to be. Their financials are in shambles. Why would I take on dead weight?”


    Her smile was faint, yet there was an edge to it, an unspoken dominance that sent a chill through the air. “I run a business, not a charity. Even Ford Group doesn’t indulge in pointless waste.”

    Luna fell silent, unable to refute her logic.


    She knew better than anyone the precarious state of Burgess Group—it was a crumbling empire, held together by nothing but a mirage of grandeur. If not for Andromache’s silent support, thepany would have copsed by now.


    Emily, unfazed, pressed further. “What about the Ashton family? You have the power to crush both the Ashton and the Burgess families, yet time and time again, you let them slip through your fingers. That’s not the mark of a truly decisive leader.”


    Corrine’s lips curved into a slow, knowing smile, her gazeced with mockery. “I could destroy them overnight, yes. But tell me—where’s the satisfaction in that? Watching them spiral, struggling against their own downfall, is far more entertaining than granting them a swift demise.”


    Emily and Luna exchanged a nce before turning their attention back to the woman before them.
