Chapter 12 - A Legacy Restored
Linda stared at the legal documents in utter disbelief. Her fingers trembled as she touched the official corporate seal bearing her late husband's name.
"I... I don't know how to run a technology company, Mr. Gallo," Linda confessed, fresh tears welling in her eyes. "I'm just a maid..."
"You are a survivor who protected her child against an empire," Mr. Gallo corrected, his voice filled with deep respect. "My executive board will handle the daily operations until you finish your business degree. You will never have to answer to a corrupt boss again."

She picked up the pen and signed her name on the final line, securing her family's freedom forever.
As she put the pen down, she looked into Mr. Gallo's dark eyes with profound gratitude. "Why did you do all of this for us? You didn't even know who I was when you saved Keo from that fire four years ago."
Mr. Gallo leaned back, looking out the window at the glowing city lights below.
