Driving back toward the company, Ryan immediately sensed something was wrong.[]
A silver Mercedes had been tailing him for miles, maintaining a careful but deliberate distance.[]
Eyes narrowing alertly, he accelerated toward the suburban outskirts, heading up into the winding mountain roads.[]
The car behind immediately sped up too.[]
At a sharp bend, the Mercedes suddenly surged forward aggressively, pulling alongside him, neither driver giving way, their vehicles mere inches from collision.
The passenger window rolled down, revealing the Sterlings‘ faces twisted with absolute rage.]
“Finally found you, Ryan Morgan. We’ve been tracking you for days. Seeing you still living it up makes me want to literally end you right now!“]
“Sterling Group did so much dirty work for you–helping with tax evasion, falsifying contracts, silencing troublesome employees. Now you just turn your back on us? You promised to fill our financial gaps, but instead brought us down with you!“[]
Since you’re this heartless, don’t blame us for being equally ruthless. Sterling Group is completely destroyed. If we can’t live well, neither will you!“]
The Sterlings had completely lost their minds, faces bright red with uncontrollable fury, pressing the accelerator with reckless abandon.[]
The two cars collided violently, sparks flying wildly. The flimsy guardrail cracked open ominously.
Ryan lost control too, ramming back while shouting:[]
“Are you any better?! You’re all monsters consumed by greed, literally sacrificing your own daughter’s happiness, committing countless crimes. How can you possibly claim to be good people!“]]
Heavy rain suddenly poured from the darkened sky. The mountain road, already treacherous, became dangerously slick with mud. Tires skidded uncontrollably on the wet surface.
In the blinding downpour, all three completely lost their sanity, pushing their vehicles to maximum speed, repeatedly ramming each other.[]
Windshields became completely blurred with muddy water, visibility dropping to zero.[]
With a piercing metallic crash…
The Mercedes and Maybach collided violently for the final time, wheels throwing sparks across the wet asphalt, both cars sliding inexorably toward the bottomless cliff edge.
All grudges and hatred dissipated in that rainy night.[]
When dawn’s first light touched the cliff’s edge, only shattered guardrails and scattered tire marks remained.[]
The last news Aria saw before boarding was about the Sterlings and Morgans.]
[Breaking: Major accident on Mount Baldy last night. Two luxury vehicles plunged off cliff, Three casualties confirmed, no survivors. Cause under investigation. Suicide ruled out, possibly due to unknown personal dispute…]]]
[Morgan Group officially declared bankruptcy today, CEO Ryan Morgan notably absent from press conference. Meanwhile, Sterling Group exposed for employee exploitation and massive tax evasion, facing public boycott. Details still developing…
Aria sighed deeply, feeling no genuine sadness, only immense relief as a long–held burden finally lifted from her shoulders.[]
These people were once the most important in her life, yet became the enemies who hurt her deepest.[]
with this dramatic end, all love and hate had reached their natural conclusion.
“Aria, it’s time to board.“[]
Marcus stood bathed in brilliant morning light, slowly extending his hand to her, the boarding gate open behind him.[]

“Coming.”
She smiled brightly, firmly grasping his warm hand.[]
She was finally going to find true rebirth.[]
Everything ahead would surely be better–uncertain perhaps, but finally, gloriously free.[]
As the plane took off, Aria watched 1.A grow smaller beneath them, the painful past shrinking to insignificance as they soared together toward their future.
