Chapter 4 - The Billion-Dollar Secret
A private helicopter lands at the resort.
A team of executives arrives.
They address Claire as:
“Ms. Blackthorne.”
Her mother freezes.
Her father drops his glass.
Vanessa stares in disbelief as the resort’s general manager personally asks Claire for approval regarding the cancellation of every wedding-related contract.
Then Claire finally reveals the truth.
She is not an office worker.
She is the founder and CEO of Blackthorne Capital.
Her company owns luxury resorts, private aviation companies, investment funds, and multiple international properties.
The island belongs to her.
The resort belongs to her.
The entire wedding was paid for by her.
The family had spent two million dollars of Claire’s money while calling her a failure.
Vanessa’s face turns white.
Her mother insists Claire must have stolen the money.
Claire responds calmly:
“You never asked what I did for a living.”
Then Ethan receives devastating news.
His company’s emergency financing has disappeared.
