Suddenly sitting up, Katie whispered to herself, “I can’t just sit here and wait for the end!”

In the silence of the night.

An urgent alarm pierced the stillness of the detention center.

Accompanied by the hurried footsteps of the supervisor, who, upon opening the door, discovered Katie in a pool of blood.

The supervisor screamed for medical assistance, “The pregnant woman in 202… She’s slit her wrists.

We need an ambulance now!”

The supervisor attempted to stem the bleeding with basic first aid, but the blood flowed copiously from deep cuts.

Soon, paramedics arrived, placing Katie on a stretcher and rushing her to an ambulance as its sirens blared.

As the ambulance departed, Katie’s tightly clenched fist relaxed, her lips curling into a faint, triumphant smile.

By the time Raegan heard the news, it was already noon the next day.

However, overwhelmed with issues at the studio, she could scarcely spare a thought for the situation.

The entire supply chain, from sourcing raw materials to the production lines, had collapsed, leading to significant delays in fulfilling a large batch of orders.

To compound the issue, finished products stored overnight in the company’s warehouse were irreparably damaged by two petty thieves who broke in.

Faced with numerous urgent requests, Raegan quickly established a joint after-sales service team to handle refunds with customers.

However, refunds alone couldn’t resolve all problems.

Some clients required custom items for imminent events and could not endure a wait for new production.

Even offering double the original compensation failed to placate some of them.

Left with no other options, Raegan, alongside her senior management team including Elin from the executive group, committed to meeting each affected customer personally.

They apologized and proposed increased compensation, demonstrating the studio’s dedication to making amends.

Raegan decided to triple the compensation, which escalated a hundred million dollar order to a three hundred million dollar liability.

Initial assessments valued the destroyed orders at 2.

6 billion dollars, leading to an expected payout of 7.

2 billion in compensation.

Considering Crescent had amassed a total gross profit of only 2 billion dollars since its founding, bridging this financial gap seemed insurmountable.

The police had apprehended the petty thieves responsible, but they were too impoverished to pay restitution and chose incarceration over payment.

Raegan realized early on that these thieves were merely pawns.

The true architects were Alexis and his associates, who, having seen their plans thwarted, were not about to let her escape their vengeance lightly.

Erick, incensed, tried to transfer all available funds from his business to assist Raegan.

However, Raegan declined, unwilling to jeopardize Erick’s company.

With no alternatives, she decided to tap into the money her mother had left her.

Later that day, Raegan had been waiting for nearly three hours outside a media company.

In the scorching summer heat, it became clear that the delay by the person Raegan was meant to meet was intentional.
