Chapter 14 - The Return
Six months later.
The grand ballroom of the Plaza Hotel in Manhattan was decorated with white orchids, crystal chandeliers, and glowing candles. Hundreds of prominent business leaders, family friends, and media representatives gathered for the annual Ashford Global Gala.
Adrian stood on the main stage in a sharp dark charcoal tuxedo, looking confident and imposing. Beside him stood Elena, wearing a breathtaking ivory silk gown that accentuated her dark hair and radiant smile.
Adrian stepped up to the microphone, taking Elena’s hand in his.
"Tonight, we celebrate not just the restructuring of Ashford Global, but the rebirth of what truly matters," Adrian announced firmly into the microphone. "We are establishing the Elena & Maya Health Foundation, dedicated to providing free prenatal and emergency care for mothers facing high-risk pregnancies across the country."
