William's expression remained grim, and Emelie fell silent. Her arm throbbed painfully, prompting her to press

he had been the one making decisions and swiftly handling dissenting voices in the operations of Cloudex
Corporation.
When people evaluated William, they praised his decisive leadership. No one dared to challenge him. Yet, upon
