Lara shook her head, disappointment swirling in her eyes. She was disappointed with her father, who was gambling his health on a ruthless game of power. Colton completely neglected his health condition, clearly risking his life just to maintain his position in the company.

"Yes, I am ignorant—because I don't care about anything but your health," Lara said emphatically, her tone softening. "I don't care if my uncle wants to claim the president position, and you shouldn't either. Please, Daddy, I am requesting you. Meet Dr. Jay and schedule the surgery. Delay will only increase the risk."
Colton's response was swift and fierce. "There will be no surgery until I set this right. I won't let Kendrick waltz in and snatch everything from under us. He will ruin you and kick you out of the family."
