Walganus Capital?

“Why on earth would she go to Walganus Capital? That’s just asking for trouble!”

Amber, standing next to Alexander, became visibly distressed as she paced with worry.

Walganus Capital was the beating heart of Regulus Windsur, a place of paramount significance. The

Chesire family, despite their influence, had no business meddling in the affairs of Walganus Capital. If

Coral ran into any sort of trouble there, they would be powerless to assist.

“Breathe, Amber.”

Alexander soothed her, gently holding her hand and smiling reassuringly. “You know how Coral is-

charming and not one to stir up serious trouble. Besides…”

He pulled out his phone with a confident grin. “Let’s just call Yaser. He’s Coral’s boyfriend, so he’ll know

what’s up.”

Amber’s eyes brightened with a mix of hope and anxiety. “Alex, please, find out! Coral’s been a magnet

for mischief since she was little, and Walganus Capital is crawling with the high and mighty. If she rubs

someone the wrong way, it can spell catastrophe!”

Catastrophe?

A wry smile played on Alexander’s lips as he swiped his phone to life and dialed Yaser.

“Brother-in-law?”



Yaser’s voice came through the phone, a bit tense, a testament to the formidable presence Alexander

was

known for. “Still up at this hour? What’s up?”

“Just a minor issue.”

Alexander’s voice was light. There sounded like a smile in his tone as he spoke into the phone, “I’ve

just heard that Coral didn’t stay in Woolpackton. She’s headed to Walganus Capital. Did you go after

her?”

There was a brief pause on the line, and Yaser sounded anxious. “Brother-in-law, I was just about to

discuss

this with you. Coral slipped away to Walganus Capital, and she wouldn’t let me tag along. I wouldn’t be

so concerned if it were any other company, but…she’s interning at a foreign firm that’s got a pretty

shady

reputation.”

Shady reputation?

Alexander’s brow furrowed, but his voice remained steady. “Take it easy, and tell me everything.”

Yaser quickly explained, “Our school’s got this deal with the company, so a lot of grads end up interning

there.

Coral got in without a hitch. However…there’s been talk, you know? Older students say the boss is bad

news,

preying on the young and pretty ones. It’s not exactly a secret.”



Alexander nodded slowly to himself.

It was an all-too-familiar story in the working world. Male bosses used their power to target female

college students, many of whom were too new to the game to speak up or fight back. Then there were

those who fell for the allure of money, ending up in the clutches of those who only played the part of the

good guy.

However, Coral was not some newbie without a hint of awareness. She was savvy enough to handle

herself against such sleaze.

“Yaser.”

With a comforting smile, Alexander cradled his phone and said, “Coral’s got a good head on her

shoulders. You don’t have to worry about her.”

Still, Yaser’s worry was palpable, his voice tinged with urgency. “It’s not Coral I’m fretting over. It’s her

boss! Rumor has it that he’s drugged his employees before-real nasty stuff. And Coral is a knockout. If

he sets his sights on her…” He trailed off, the unsaid fears hanging heavy in the air.

A naive beauty could have easily fallen prey to a CEO’s machinations, a little cunning all it would have

taken to lead her astray.

“Here’s what we’ll do,” Alexander mused, his voice a gentle murmur. “What’s the company’s name? I’ll

help you figure this out.”

Yaser immediately answered, “It’s called Aarison Auto-Electric. I don’t know the boss’s name, just that

he’s a foreigner with tight ties to a big domestic group. Something like…New Evan Energy Group.”



New Evan Energy Group?

The name Aarison Auto-Electric did not faze Alexander, but New Evan Energy piqued his interest, a

subtle wave of intrigue washing over his face.

In a world where oil and gas were dwindling, new energy was the next big play. New Evan Energy

stood at the forefront of that frontier, a titan of Regulus Windsur’s empire. Behind that giant? The true

power lay with Walganus Capital, the mighty Duncan family-one of the nation’s elite.
