Rewriting My Heart's Fate

I couldn't trust Ethan anymore. The sweet memories we once shared would be forever sealed in the deepest corners of my heart.

From that point on, I devoted myself entirely to my work. I channeled all my energy into Evelyn Studio.

With that, I became stronger because the man who once held my heart was no longer by my side. I forced myself to stop thinking of him, to stop revisiting the past. "Evelyn, take a look at this." Kevin suddenly approached and handed me an envelope.

I took it with caution and opened it to find an invitation inside. It was an invitation to attend the Grayson Group's centennial celebration.

My heart skipped a beat. The centennial celebration was the most prestigious event for Grayson Group. It was reserved only for the wealthiest and most influential. And here I was, the head of Evelyn Studio, among the invitees?

"What's this about?" I frowned and asked.

Kevin shrugged. "I don't know. It came directly from the headquarters."

I paused for a moment before setting the invitation back to the desk. "Forget it. I'm not going."

"Why not?" Kevin asked in surprise. "Evelyn Studio is growing right now. Don't you think attending would be a great opportunity to show them what we've got?"
