She had contemplated helping the Stewart family, but she recalled the instructions given to her by Miranda when she assumed her role.

“What? Who’s the new CEO, and why does he have a grudge against the Stewart family?” Marilyn questioned confusedly.

“I have no idea. I’ve been at the company for so long, and I’ve never seen him before,” Willow replied.

The mysterious CEO piqued her curiosity. All she knew was that he was Caspian’s classmate, but the details about his identity and appearance remained elusive.
