Chapter 319 Victory in the Spotlight
The presentation began with Donald.

His numbers were rock solid-under his leadership, a severely underperforming company had made an
impressive turnaround.
Slide after slide, the data laid out a clear trajectory. Growth. Recovery. Profit.
And Donald himself was poised and articulate. Even Tessa found herself glancing at him more than once.
This Donald... when he’s serious, he actually looks like he knows what he’s doing.
When he finished, the room erupted into enthusiastic applause.
“Well, that’s it for me,” Donald said, stepping aside with a relaxed smile. “Next, I'd like to invite Mr. Yardley to
present.”
He was saving Tessa for last-because he, too, was eager to see her shine.
Yardley nodded at Liam to start the slideshow.
Liam had done all the prep work-Yardley hadn't even looked at the report ahead of time.
Normally, it was just a formality. But now? It showed.
The moment Yardley began to speak, it becclear that his spoken figures didn’t match the slides behind him.
Still, he pressed on, pretending nothing was wrong.
From beside her, Donald leaned in to whisper to Tessa, “Are you sure you're really this guy’s daughter?”
“I mean no offense. I'm just amazed. How does someone that unimpressive end up with a daughter like you?”
Even Donald had to admit it-Tessa’s talent was undeniable.
Yardley struggled through the rest of the presentation, ignoring the murmurs rippling through the room.
His face was tight, his aura frayed.
“Was | really that bad just now?” he asked Lila under his breath.

Lila frowned. “What were you doing last night? You didn’t even memorize the key data.”
He hadn't chat all.
“Don’t botherabout that. I've still got the votes. That's all that matters.” His fingers scratched at the table,
leaving faint claw marks as he tried to mask his nerves with bluster.
Tessa was the real threat. As long as she withdrew, everything would be fine.

“And now,” Donald announced, “Miss Tessa, please take the floor.”

The room fell quiet in anticipation-not just Donald, but every shareholder was watching her closely.
As Tessa rose and made her way to the front, Yardley’s aura suddenly shifted, flaring with disorder and a sharp,
almost savage undercurrent.
He wasn’t worried about her skills. He had the old man in his hands. And he knew exactly what mattered
most to Tessa.
She wouldn't dare go too far... right?
Tessa stepped onto the stage with perfect calm.
She connected her presentation herself and began.
No flowery words. No excessive flair.
Just data-clean, powerful, and undeniable.

One comparison after another, each more striking than the last. Every slide felt like the scent of prey— sharply
catching the attention of every werewolf in the room, triggering their innate hunger for profit and growth.
“And that concludes my report,” Tessa said clearly. “I believe everyone here is a rational investor. You've put your
money into Sinclair Corp because you want to see a return-and I, Tessa, can make sure you get exactly that.”
Each word landed with weight, firm and unwavering.
Her confidence wasn’t showy-it radiated from her without effort, like gravity.
She didn’t strike poses. She didn’t have to.
Yet standing there, she shone brighter than anyone in the room.
The shareholders’ eyes

Yardley’s expression darkened.

There was no ego in his tone, only sincerity.
That brief, clean presentation had shown everyone the truth of Tessa’s capabilities.
She wasn't just good. She was exactly what Sinclair Corp needed to move forward.
