Leo Cross was once the sole heir to the founding family of the Dragoncrest Group. Three years ago, his father left a trust will stipulating that Leo must live anonymously for three years, refrain from exercising the family’s sovereign rights, and not abuse his wealth or power—only then would he automatically unlock a 51% controlling stake.
With just 72 hours remaining before the three-year period expired, Leo was publicly humiliated at a high-end restaurant by his ex-girlfriend Chloe and Ryan, a wealthy heir, and was forced to swipe his Founder Black Card. Once the Black Card was activated, the inheritance review process officially began.
Interim Chairman Victor Hale had been waiting for this moment. He arranged for Ryan, Tom, Jason, law firm partners, Chloe, and others to take turns provoking Leo, attempting to fabricate evidence of “abuse of power, violence, mental instability, and retaliation against ordinary people” in order to seize control of Dragoncrest at the final board meeting.
Sophia Reed is a top-tier attorney at a leading law firm. She isn’t there to fight Leo’s battles, but to ensure the integrity of the chain of evidence. She reframes each of Leo’s counterattacks from “rich man’s revenge” to “compliant retaliation,” ultimately joining forces with Leo to expose Victor’s power-grab scheme.
