Chapter 11 - the shadow from the past

A decade of absolute, unbroken serenity settled over the grand fashion empire since Grace officially reclaimed her rightful throne. Grace, the brilliant and resilient CEO, had flawlessly solidified her legacy as an untouchable beacon of global philanthropy and luxury design.
Under her flawless leadership alongside Nathan, the dark, toxic history of Vanessa's betrayal was permanently buried beneath towering glass storefronts and massive, fully-funded charity foundations. The family enjoyed their years in profound, hard-won peace, believing the worst was far behind them.
However, supreme global dominance inevitably attracts highly dangerous predators. A ruthless corporate espionage syndicate, funded by a disgraced international textile mogul named Alistair, secretly targeted Grace's flagship design vault.
Alistair didn't use street mercenaries or physical violence; he weaponized advanced data and digital sabotage. One freezing winter evening, while Grace was finalizing the billion-dollar spring collection, the headquarters' advanced security grid suffered a massive blackout.
