Christina was at home, having a blast singing and dancing merrily with her girlfriends, completely unaware of the storm brewing online, when her father suddenly burst through the door.
With a resounding slap, he sent her sprawling to the ground.
In an instant, the room fell deathly silent.
Terrified, Christina's friends grabbed their bags and fled in panic.
Christina was stunned by the slap, her cheek burning with searing pain—she truly felt what it meant to be hit.
In disbelief, Christina looked up at her ever-doting father, tears welling up in her eyes. "Daddy, you hit me!"
"Look what you've done! You ungrateful child—I actually thought you were a promising heir. Now the stocks have plummeted. You're done for! This is all your fault! ALL your fault!"
Scandal after scandal about Christina erupted relentlessly, flooding every corner of the internet. Despite desperate attempts to bury them, her name stubbornly clung to the very top of the trending list.
Christina stared wide-eyed at the tablet her father had thrown at her feet. The internet was flooded with news about her—scandals she thought were long buried now splashed across every platform. Her face paled as she took in the meticulous details of each damning accusation, laid out in neat bullet points.
Christina's mind reeled. "No way, no way... How could they... how could they know about these things?"
Christina's mind raced. "I swear I took care of everything! This can't be happening... It wasn't supposed to turn out like this..."
With a trembling voice, she pleaded, "Dad, someone must be targeting me, framing me! None of it is true, I swear! You have to believe me, Dad. Please!"
Had it not been for solid evidence backing every accusation, even he wouldn't have believed it was true.
Christina, effective immediately, you're barred from any involvement in company affairs. I'm sending you abroad at once.
"No, no! Daddy, please! I don't want to go abroad!" Christina pleaded.
Just an hour ago, she had been daydreaming about acquiring Hughes Corporation and landing the General Manager position at Foster Group. Now, she was a social pariah—despised by everyone and about to be exiled abroad.
"No! I can't accept this!" Christina thought, overwhelmed with despair.
Her father said coldly, "It's not up to you. You'd better pray the public outcry dies down soon."
Lauren was reporting on the Foster Group when she mentioned that Charlotte had pushed the scandal onto the trending list, likely fearing that Hughes Corporation's core secrets might be leaked.
Lauren thought Charlotte's worries were unfounded. "Core secrets? For Hughes Corporation in its current state, that's all just empty talk," she mused.
However, given the Foster Group's long-standing history, it's impossible to bring it down completely overnight.
But for Hughes Corporation, Foster Group is more than enough to serve as a springboard.
"Now. Strike!"
"Understood, Ms. Sky." Lauren gave a brief nod.
Christina still clung to the desperate hope that she could salvage the situation. "If I can just take down Hughes Corporation and bring it under my control, everything can still be redeemed," she thought.
In desperation, Christina leaked Hughes Corporation's most confidential secrets.
In an instant, the internet exploded with trending headlines like "Hughes Corporation's bottomless pit of debt," "core business under siege by industry giants," and "international capital circling like vultures," rocketing the company to the top of online discussions.
News of Foster Group's aggressive moves against Hughes Corporation quickly overshadowed all of Christina Fu's scandals.
Hughes Corporation became the laughingstock of Wall Street, with industry giants from all sectors openly predicting its demise.
Upon seeing the news, David frowned slightly. "This doesn't reflect her true capabilities," he thought.
"Wait... could she be planning something?" David wondered, realization dawning on him.
David suddenly understood, his lips curling into a knowing smile as he walked away.
On the surface, Hughes Corporation seemed on the brink of collapse, but in reality, it was simply biding its time, waiting for the right moment.
The next second, Skye made her move—armed with breakthroughs in IT, energy technology, semiconductor chips, and cutting-edge AI. In an all-or-nothing gambit, she unleashed three world-shaking moves that single-handedly turned the tide, instantly making Hughes Corporation the focus of the entire business world.
That night, the name Skye sent shockwaves through Cascadia's business world, instantly propelling Hughes Corporation into the elite ranks of the Top Five Enterprises. Her name became a living legend—a business icon forever etched as the ultimate comeback story.
Only then did it dawn on everyone—like a lightbulb going off in their heads—that Hughes Corporation had been using Foster Group as a stepping stone all along.
The entire internet was abuzz with discussions about Skye—until, within minutes, any mention of her was blacklisted across all platforms. It was as if the whirlwind of events had been nothing but a dream. Yet, Hughes Corporation had undeniably become a formidable presence among the Top Five Enterprises.
Even the notoriously low-profile Four Corporate Houses emerged to congratulate Hughes Corporation, suddenly extending their goodwill.
Ethan hadn't expected Skye to still be this impressive. Pure admiration was all he felt.
Rachel hadn't even made it home yet when her older brother started blowing up her phone with call after call, driving her up the wall—she was on the verge of blocking him.
"Rachel," her brother's voice was tense, "is that Skye everyone's talking about online— is that really her?"
Rachel snapped, "Big brother, are you 33 or 3? I've told you ten times—TEN times! Even a toddler would get it by now!"
One million bucks. Say it one more time.
Rachel's attitude shifted instantly, her voice turning sweet and coaxing. "My dearest brother, Skye is back—she's alive! She survived that plane crash all those years ago. Got it, my big bro?"
"Understood," he replied.
Rachel put on a suddenly sweet, fawning tone. "Henry, what about my million bucks?"
A cold voice came from the other end of the line: "I've sent you a hundred bucks on Venmo. Go check it yourself."
Rachel was just about to unleash a torrent of curses when the call abruptly ended.
With a resounding slap, he sent her sprawling to the ground.
